Cloudbursts occur because the warm air current from the ground or below the clouds rushes up and carries the falling raindrops up with it.

The rain fails to fall down in a steady shower. This results in excessive condensation in the clouds as new drops form and old drops are pushed back into it by the updraft. Then one of them gives in. The air current slows down or the clouds can't hold.

The resulting violent downpour can dump as much as 70,000 tonnes of water over an acre of land.

In India, a cloudburst mostly occurs in the mountains of India where the low monsoon clouds are stopped by the high mountains. But it may happen elsewhere.

On July 26, 2005, a cloudburst over Mumbai dumped 1,448 mm of rain in 10 hours.
