Cloud burst and floods likely in Uttarakhand
Due to neglect of studies of chemistry and physics and basing all the understanding of weather on pressure and temperature is proving inconclusive. Almost everyday the predictions are failing and weathermen are finding an alibi in alnino or such factors which are very little understood and have not very well pronounced impact. The local factors which are dominantly affecting are being completely overlooked which are having a devastating effect.
The Indo gangetic plains are getting crowded day by day making excessive us of air conditioning,inverters,and diesel generators are continuously adding much heat to the atmosphere in addition to the heat of bright sun light because clouds are avoiding the Palins. Clouds are finding it easier to move towards the Himalayan heights which are comparatively cooler and wind is also helpful unlike the plains are not only hotter but high rise buildings and other activities are gradually adding heat to the system resisting condensation.
Himalayan region is providing a friendly atmosphere for condensation due which clouds are precipitating. Contrary to this the hot and hydrocarbon loaded air which become hydrophobic in nature does not provide a conducive situation for precipitation. Thus the concentration of moisture in the Himalayan region is easier and is going to bring in cloud bursts in the region.
It is very likely that the episode of 2013 that was witnessed in Kedar Nath and adjoining areas may be repeated very soon and this time it may extend to the upper regions also such as laddakh and Amarnath and Kashmir.
This is just to serve the purpose of an alert and the government
agencies in the area must be prepared for any emergency .
