Not sure that is accurate.

From floodsmart.gov:

Flood insurance covers direct physical loss caused by
“flood.” In simple terms, a flood is an excess of water on
land that is normally dry. Here’s the official definition
used by the National Flood Insurance Program.
A flood is (1) “A general and temporary condition of
partial or complete inundation of two or more acres of
normally dry land area or of two or more properties (at
least one of which is your property) from a. overflow of
inland or tidal waters; b. unusual and rapid accumulation
or runoff of surface waters from any source; or c.
mudflow*. (2) collapse or subsidence of land along the
shore of a lake or similar body of water as a result of
erosion or undermining caused by waves or currents of
water exceeding anticipated cyclical levels that result in a
flood as defined in A.1.a. above.
