Ponded or Flowing

I was pleasantly surprised by something I heard on the radio (for a change).  Instead of hearing English mangled and misused, I heard a great word-phrase, really.  They were talking with a specialist about what sort of effects we might expect from the bad weather we are expecting.  He said that people should be careful driving, especially on routes they know can flood, because "ponded or flowing" water can obscure the road surface.  Very well spoken!  (Spell-check doesn't like the word ponded, but I do!)
