What are the causes of the Carlisle floods?

The Carlisle floods, particularly notable during events like those in 2005 and 2009, are primarily caused by heavy rainfall leading to rapid river overflow. The city is located in a basin that can quickly become saturated, exacerbated by urbanization, which increases surface runoff. Additionally, inadequate drainage systems and the geographical layout of the area contribute to the risk of flooding. Climate change also plays a role, increasing the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events.
