WD + monsoon axis interaction to give heavy rains over HP, UK & Jammu dvn next 3 days
Isolated places in foot/low hills may record spell of 100mm+ rainfall in 1hr
Continuous rains in catchments to make rivers to swell further
Dharamshala - Palampur - Jogindernagar to score big
Severe Weather Alert: A massive Western Distrubance and LPS interactions possible over north India during 31 August to 5 September. This will bring extremely heavy showers over parts of north India. Please remain Watchful and Updated with latest forecast.

Geo-tracing of the flashflood that has almost entirely wiped out Dharali village in Uttarkashi District, Uttarakhand.
Small red circle - Dharali village
Red line - trace of Kheer Ganga gad from glaciated terrain
Large red circle - Mt. Srikantha 6133 mt massif and minor peaks. Glaciated terrain on the northern slope of this mountain is what feeds the Kheer Ganga gad.
Looking at extent of debris flow, it possibly originated in this area.
Bhagirathi River Flow Blocked, Lake Reportedly Forming in Harsil
Reports coming in from Harsil suggest that the flow of the Bhagirathi River has been obstructed, leading to the formation of a temporary lake in the area.
This is a serious development and could pose further risk downstream. Authorities are monitoring the situation closely.

An M7.7 earthquake struck overnight near Mandalay, Myanmar, as the result of strike slip faulting between the India and Eurasia plates. Focal mechanism solutions indicate that slip occurred on either a north-striking, steeply-dipping, right-lateral fault, or a west striking, steeply-dipping, left-lateral fault. The finite fault solution indicates a north striking right-lateral fault. This focal mechanism and finite fault solution are consistent with the earthquake potentially occurring on the right-lateral Sagaing Fault that lies in the fault zone that defines the plate boundary between the Indian and Sunda plates.
While commonly plotted as points on maps, earthquakes of this size are more appropriately described as slip over a larger fault area. The finite fault solution indicates the size of this event is about 200 km by 20 km (length x width).
This region has experienced similar large strike slip earthquakes, with six other magnitude 7 and larger earthquakes occurring within about 150 miles (250 km) of this earthquake since 1900. The most recent of these was a magnitude 7.0 earthquake in January 1990, which caused 32 buildings to fall. A magnitude 7.9 earthquake occurred south of today’s earthquake in February 1912. Within this broad zone of tectonic deformation, other large earthquakes include a magnitude 7.7 earthquake in 1988.
