The cause of the powerful torrents of floodwater that carved a devastating path through Nepal and Tibet, swallowing towns, roads and bridges — is not yet clear, but Nepal is a hotspot for climate disasters as the planet heats up.
Vast swaths of ice are melting, and rocky mountainsides are destabilizing, becoming less solid and more fluid. As glaciers turn to water and create massive lakes in high mountain elevations, summertime melting can release these lakes downstream. On top of it all, climate change is leading to more extreme rainfall that can trigger deadly flooding.

China did you murder the people of your neighbouring country Nepal?
It’s not a flash flood, CNN. It’s an avalanche, lahar-like as this was triggered by a glacier and rocks collapse in the Himalayas.
Iran simply declares that US economic sanctions are inconsistent with international law, and therefore a hoax and void. That’s it. It’s Iran.
Then Trump will be dizzy again. His lies have no effect.
They need Tents, sleeping bag, Food, Water maybe even Baby suplies Bit I Hope they will not builup again.,
I dunno some are saying mountain glacier melt collapse in contrast to reasons for gravitational after shockwaves emanating from nearby earthquake.
Beware. CNN makes things up to meet its employer’s narrative.
Climate change is Bullcrap. It’s a shame about the catastrophic death toll.
Glaciers are always breaking apart. This one was above an important river bed. It’s called a Natural disaster.
Prove it. Waiting
Terrible pilot. If I was flying the helo and has the first eyewitness of the head of the flash flood, I will fly low over and ahead of it to warn anyone who can be warned on the valley ground as best as I can. That would be my first act.
No doubt it looks post-apocalyptic very biblical😮
They flew and took photos for vlogger to publish but they did not rescue any one😂😂😂😂😂
This is probably the kind of flood Noah was preparing for..
He saw a gorge and riverbed reclaiming its space
