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.)

Post Hurricane Harvey Getting Ready for Hurricane Irma and Hurricane Katia High Priority

Posted by HCN on Thursday, September 7, 2017,
It is September 7th 2017, talk has been around for a few days now about Hurricane Irma being powerful and imminent.  A key in staying ahead of storms of that kind of magnitude is time; waiting until the last minute to try to come up with an effective plan that involves numerous square miles and millions of people is not a prudent strategy.

What those of us in the United States need to know, and really have a strong grapple on, is to realize these storms could be coming and not to blow them off...
