This seems like a much more reasonable explanation

Yeah, now do camp Mystic, hurricane Helene, hurricane Katrina, and about 100 other floodings that are mysterious.

Nothing remotely mysterious about Katrina. It’s just physics.

Floods and hurricanes didn't happen prior to the industrial revolution.

Randall Carson reports part of a mountain collapsed and shows before and after satellite images.



quote:


A mountain face in Nepal collapsed on the morning of August 26 and took part of a glacier down with it. The flood that followed reached water speeds Randall calculates on camera at 111 miles per hour. It destroyed the warning gauges before they could transmit a single reading. Villages downstream got a text message after the wave had already passed through. The early coverage called it a glacial lake outburst. It was not one. The glacier was on top of the mountain that fell.

Randall Carlson and Becket Fusik trace the event from the collapse on Langtang Lirung to the one gauge reading that survived, far downstream of the peak flow. Then Randall puts the number in context. By his live estimate, the ice age Missoula floods that carved the Channeled Scablands of eastern Washington were roughly 600 times larger. Planetary scale movement of water is not a theory. It is measured, published, and still written into the landscape, and events like this one are the yardstick that lets us picture it.

I knew they were going to spin it as "climate change." JFC...

Humans build near water, humans experience flooding.



Go figure.

I have a sister with TDS that thinks it's Trump's fault because he and DOGE cut funding to some NGO that uses satelites to study glacier lakes that could have warned the people about the impending doom that nobody else saw coming

I hate that people I know also know that I'm related to that tard

This is why knowledge is important and ignorance is a choice.

You know we had systems in place to monitor glacial melt to help prevent situations like this right? It was a warning system in place. Do you know what happened? We defunded it. Clowns

Neither is there about Helene. Response, yes, but we had over a week of daily rainfall prior to Helene. That’s what caused the mudslides and flooding. Not Helene alone.
