Nepal area avalanche, high velocity mud water natural disaster update
September 16, 2026: Although progress was made in the rescue effort, several major challenges are present. The number of unaccounted for individuals is estimated at almost double earler numbers; now about 6,000. Individuals that have been found post mortem are difficult to identify even with DNA help. Only a fraction of Americans that were missing are fully accounted for.
Update August 30, 2026 2:40pm EST: There are about over 80 Americans that are missing
Footage of rescue efforts indicate relatively slow progress. It has been more than a couple of full days now and survivors might starve if they are not rescued. Potential methods and solutions, are to expedite the process, self-evident easier said than done, however, in this case expediting might involve obtaining and putting to use some of the same technologies used during the Spain mud slides disaster late October 2024, such as major drainage pipes. (Ice and formulations from heights in the Himalayan mountains came crashing down and did one of 2 things or both, 1, push down on waters with large force which cause rise in waters, similar to a person getting into a bathtub of water and the water rises, or 2, adding to waters, similar to dumping a gallon of water into a full sink in a kitchen resulting in overflow. 4th and other factors might exist, but not stated here. Hence, techniques and strategies to counter what happened, may be helpful. Get overflow of water and mud out of the way of the rescue paths.)
