Why does it flood after a forest fire?
One of the most major reasons for flooding occurring after a forest fire is that all the vegetation that would have slowed and soaked up the majority of the water, has been killed. All of the rainfall simply washes over the dead landscape and empties into waterways at once, something that would never have been able to occur before the fire.
What causes a fire sprinkler to activate?
Ordinary fire sprinklers activate (open) when they get hot enough. They may be equipped with a "frangible-bulb" glass vial, which holds the valve shut until the liquid expands beyond a calibrated volume and bursts the glass. They may have a "fusible link", made from various metals and calibrated to separate (melt) at a given temperature, releasing a spring-valve.
Other specialized sprinkler systems cannot be activated until there is also a smoke or other fire detector trigger that allows pressurized water into the system.
One other special type is called "deluge" and the sprinklers do not have valves at all. When the smoke or fire detector (or manual emergency trigger) goes off, the water will pour from every sprinkler head.
Many TV shows and movies use fictional deluge systems for comedic effects when someone "pulls the fire alarm" and sets off the sprinklers, which would not normally occur in a properly designed system.

Why it rains in tropical climate?
The precipitation is much higher in that climate. So, when all the water evaporates, it goes up into the clouds. When the clouds are full of water, they release the water so it rains. And since there's a large amount of water, it rains much more frequently
It will most likely become an oak forest again
