What happens after a cloudburst?
Answers
Cloudburst, a sudden, very heavy rainfall, usually local in nature and of brief duration. Most so-called cloudbursts occur in connection with thunderstorms. In these storms there are violent uprushes of air, which at times prevent the condensing raindrops from falling to the ground. A large amount of water may thus accumulate at high levels, and if the upward currents are weakened the whole of this water falls at one time.
The following things may occur after a cloudburst occurs -
1. When cloudburst occurs, about 20 mm rain falls in a very less time.
2. Flash flood may also be created due to cloudburst.
3. Precipitation might also occur very rapidly.
4. It may even cause a very destructive flood in some particular areas.
5. In our country India, cloudbursts mainly occurs or happens in the mountains.
These are some the consequences that may occur during the cloudbursts.
