Do floods happen before a hurricane strikes land?
It depends on how you define "strikes land." Landfall is defined as the point where the eye of a hurricane moves over land, but a hurricane is much bigger than its eye. So the storm bands of a hurricane can cause flooding even if the eye never hits land. However, flooding cannot occur before the bands come in. Even if there is no official landfall, an area can still be said to have been hit.
What is the likely cause of major devastation if a hurricane strikes a low lying coastal Area?
The likely cause of major devastation if a hurricane strikes a low-lying coastal area is a combination of storm surge and flooding. The storm surge, which is the rise in sea level caused by high winds and low pressure of the hurricane, can push large amounts of water inland, causing widespread flooding. In addition, the heavy rainfall associated with hurricanes can further exacerbate flooding in low-lying areas.
