| WILL WE BE ABLE IN FUTURE TO FIND ALL REASONS TO TAKE CONTROL OF CLOUDBURSTS? Written by Ashok Raina | | | |
It is not necessary that everyone knows that how the cloud bursts often occur especially during the seasonal wind of time when the monsoon term remains on peak you know that everyone is not a geographical student is knowledgeable at least about all the seasons of the year but generally people knows that Cloudbursts can quickly create large amounts of water within a few minutes destroying the somewhat around in coming .The researchers found and has explained that Cloudbursts happen when drenched clouds cannot cause rain because of the rising movement of the extremely hot current of air. Rather than falling, raindrops get larger in dimension and are forced up because of the air current. Finally, they will be heavier to carry and fall, leading to more rainfall than normal.
The most significant thing is that despite knowing all this, why are the giant and great methodical and knowledgeable men and women employees and scientists working in the meteorological department failing to share information with the people warmly or predict the cloud burst?
If we want to go again to discuss intensely on the related subject thereafter we will be able to come to conclude with one of these renewed definitions that Cloudburst is a sudden and intense weather event characterized by heavy rainfall over a short period of time, typically within a few minutes to an hour. It is sure that the subject is of most importance and we should not hesitate or make a leniency within ourselves and we should have to go beyond the research as already we have become capable to do to understand.
In the days of earlier people were never expected to realize in advance to know when it would be raining or would make the snowfall but the times of yore have gone and after the meteorological department has come into force the life of journey and journey of life has become very easy and very comfortable. The people are being informed just before some days ahead about the situation of seasonal wind in the skies by means of predictions.
That since from the mid night of 20th July 1970 the unfortunate tragedy and infamous incident of Alaknanda Valley have still forced to make us reminisced and recalled the latest very painful incident of hilly village the dharoli in utrakhand or chasoti in Kishtawar district of Jammu and Kashmir for we have to face and lost the thousands of precious lives from the very beginning due to cloud bursts and this is not good thing because it is self-explanatory in nature that we have not taken such beneficial initiatives or steps so long from the period of 1970 to cross over all limits through geographical boundaries. Thus, we can say here that there is much more attention needed for how we are able to understand the subject of geography in usual form to minimize the cases of cloudbursts in future and to make control over the death rate.
India is considered a monsoon-oriented country on the global climate map. On August 17th, 1998, unfortunate cloudburst in Malpa village incident happened while as On July 6th, 2004 Badrinath shrine area in Chamoli district, Uttarakhand unfortunate incident occurred same as, On August 7th, 2009 a cloudburst in the Nachni area near Munsiyari in the Pithoragarh district of Uttarakhand happened. Not only above all but On September 15th, 2010, a cloudburst caused two villages to submerge in Almora in Uttarakhand and On September 14th, 2013, a cloudburst in Ukhimath,On June 15th, 2013, a cloudburst happened in the Kedarnath and Rambara region of Rudraprayag district, Uttarakhand,June 30, 2013.
Continuously since then and it has been acknowledged that On September 29th, 2010, a cloudburst left many people injured and a number of vehicles and buildings damaged due to the corresponding flash floods in NDA, Khadakwasla, Pune, in Maharashtra.
Again, on October 4th, 2010, a cloudburst in Pashan, Pune, in Maharashtra while on July 30th, 2014, a landslide occurred in Malin, located in Ambegaon taluka in the Pune district of India.
Perhaps you have recollected and On June 9th, 2011, a cloudburst in Jammu left four people dead and several injured on the Doda-Batote highway. On September 15th, 2011, a cloudburst happened in the Palam area of the National Capital Territory of Delhi
It is pertinent to mention here that On July 31, 2014, a cloudburst happened in the Tehri Garhwal district of Jharkhand while as On September 6th, 2014, a cloudburst in the Kashmir valley, On July 20th, 2017, a cloudburst occurred in Thathri town of Doda district, killing 6 people. On July 28th, 2021, a cloudburst happened in Hunzar hamlet in the Dachhan area of Kishtwar,On 8th July 2022, a cloudburst happened at Pahalgam en route to the Amarnath cave shrine,On May 4th, 2018, a cloudburst occurred above Belagavi, Karnataka leave several lives dead.
On October 20th, 2021, a cloudburst happened above Pethanaickenpalayam town of Salem district, Tamil Nadu affected largely the whole area unfortunately.
In the Monsoon session of 2023, there has been a large surge in cloudbursts seen across several regions of Himachal Pradesh, especially in places like Mandi, Solan, and Shimla leading to the loss of many lives and substantial damage to local infrastructure.
That in all unknown natural adversity the households of people affected and beside its Loss of lives of humans and animals were being recorded. Yes, loss of buildings and property damage, loss of forests, loss of current crops and fruits, loss of cultivable land, loss of bridges and flyovers occurred due to cloud burst hit crisis all the times.
Although a lot has changed in the field of science as compared to the past, we have failed to properly measure the reasons for the changes taking place in the field of weather, due to which we are still suffering a lot of human and financial losses.
In my mind it once has taken me in place again and again and forcing me to why not we go ahead through in deep conscious activities our minds to understand the weather situations around us perfectly and my this desire and thought irritating within me all the times that “ Will we be able in the future to find all the reasons to take control of the cloudbursts so that we can save lives as well as the loss of property?
