Abstract—Flash floods are one of the most dangerous hydrometeorological events all over the World. In the current paper stochastic parameters of flash floods formation are studied on the basis of data on flash floods in 1990–2021 in the small river basins of the Caucasus and Crimea Black Sea Coast. The main factor of flash floods formation is heavy rain, but in some cases its occurrence could depend on critical combination of various factors. Flash floods are usually formed in summer-autumn peri
