[email protected] Received: 7 August 2020; Accepted: 16 October 2020; Published: 18 October 2020 Abstract: The uncertainty of flash flood makes them highly difficult to predict through conventional models. The physical hydrologic models of flash flood prediction of any large area is very difficult to compute as it requires lot of data and time.
