災害 返答 teams 戦う/戦い 季節風 影響 as 天候 機関s 主張する 'the worst is over'

The MET office may have earned a 評判 of making 正確な 天気予報s in the 最近の times, but 極端に 激しい 降雨 in the hilly areas have caught the department and 災害 管理/経営 機関s off guard.

The India 気象の Department (IMD) had 警告するd of "very 激しい 降雨". However, data 分析 of the 天候 system and the rains has shown that there was "極端に 激しい 降雨", IMD, 公式の/役人s said.

強い雨s during the very first phas e of the 前進するing 季節風 have 原因(となる)d large 規模 破壊 in several parts in Uttarakhand and Himachal Pradesh, putting 災害 preparedness and 天候 予測 能力s to 実験(する) yet again.

Relief: Indian army officials help travellers and villagers up a steep slope after they were stranded by the rising flood waters of the River Alaknanda near Govindghat, in the Chamoli district in Uttarakhand

救済: Indian army 公式の/役人s help travellers and 村人s up a 法外な slope after they were 立ち往生させるd by the rising flood waters of the River Alaknanda 近づく Govindghat, in the Chamoli 地区 in Uttarakhand

国家の 災害 管理/経営 機関 (NDMA) 公式の/役人s said that they did not 推定する/予想する this 肉親,親類d of 極端に 強い雨, さもなければ people could have been 避難させるd to safer places.

After the rains, 国家の 災害 救済 軍隊 was sent to Haridwar, Rishikesh and other 影響する/感情d areas.

"There is no special 予測(する) 問題/発行するd to NDMA. It is the normal 予測(する) which comes to us. The rains (機の)カム suddenly for us," NDMA 公式の/役人s said.

IMD said rains would now come 負かす/撃墜する.

"The worst is over for both Uttarakhand and Himachal Pradesh. The rains would now 減少(する) in the coming days," Dr B P Yadav, director, IMD, said.

"We knew about very 激しい 降雨 and had 警告するd about it," Yadav said.

A scientist said that the 問題/発行する of 増加するd rain occurrence during the month of June needs to be looked into.

おもに, there was an interaction of 季節風 flow which fed moisture and western 騒動 which brought 冷静な/正味のing. All this led to 激しい rains.

Weak links

There appear to be different perceptions within さまざまな departments in the 政府 on what 現実に 原因(となる)d these 極端に 強い雨s.

An NDMA 公式の/役人 said it was a cloudburst in Kedarnath which 原因(となる)d these 前例のない rains. "Nobody can 予報する cloudburst though 強い雨s can be 予報するd," he said.

Dr Ajit Tyagi, former director general, IMD, said it was not cloudburst. The rains covered large areas in not only Uttarakhand and Himachal Pradesh, but also the 山のふもとの丘s.

There were 長引かせるd rains for 48 hours. Cloudbursts do not cover large areas. In this 事例/患者, large areas from the source to rivers like Yamuna and Ganga were 影響する/感情d.

What could have been done to minimise 破壊 was to stop traffic to the 影響する/感情d areas and keep people in safer areas.

However, 結合,連鎖s between these 警告s 問題/発行するd by the country's met department a nd the 影響する/感情d areas appear to be weak.

"NDMA teams did reach there after the cloudburst," NDMA 公式の/役人s said. NDMA 反応するs only when 明言する/公表するs ask for help. The problem is 明言する/公表する 災害 救済 軍隊 has not been 始める,決める up in Uttarakhand, they said.
