The Recipe for Disaster That Is Causing Destruction in Himalayan States
The disasters unfolding in the hill states are a result of unplanned development on unstable mountains that are already facing extreme weather events, scientists and environmentalists said. Without planned, resilience-friendly development and adaptation measures such as district-level micro plans to deal with the changing climate, there may be no respite for the people or the environment in these regions.

Dam bursts open as deadly #flooding washes away homes in #Norway
Entire towns have been evacuated in Norway after unrelenting rain sparked widespread flooding, and the country's prime minister warned residents that the flooding is "by no means over."
By Brian Lada, AccuWeather meteorologist and staff writer
Published Aug 11, 2023 1:09 PM EDT
"Torrents of water gushed through multiple towns across Norway and #landslides cascaded down mountainsides after a deluge drenched Norway earlier in the week. Residents have been forced to evacuate, and the situation could get worse before it gets better.
"Significant flooding was reported in the Norwegian towns of #Nes, #Bagn and #Valer, all located north of the capital city of #Oslo.
"A wet July was the precursor to the flooding, with monthly rainfall more than 300% of the historical average in and around Oslo. The wet pattern persisted through the first part of August with rain falling every day through the first 10 days of the month."

"A global increase of extreme precipitation, well outside the range of natural variability, has been well-documented by scientists. It’s one of the hallmarks of human-caused global warming, and new research published this week in Nature shows that high elevation areas, including most of the mountains of Western North America, are particularly vulnerable to deluges that can trigger landslides, floods and severe erosion."
