Stormwater runoff
Impervious surfaces like roofs and parking lots cannot absorb water. A large volume of rainfall in a relatively short period of time produces runoff, which carries sediments and chemicals into bodies of water. Storm drains cannot always handle the volume of water, or get backed up for other reasons, creating puddles like this one in a parking lot. Video taken in Arnold, Maryland.
