[Monthly report] Weather alert It is monsoon season here at Nepal. Above 70% rainfall occurs within this 4-month During monsoon this year heavy rainfall followed by thunderstorm is causing landslides and flood in different parts of the country. Water level in Karnali, Narayani and Koshi which are larger rivers of Nepal is above danger level. Although this seems to be a darker side of nature, it is mostly invited by human activities. Places where road construction, sand mining are hit harder. The fact is we can never fight with nature but should learn to live in harmony with it. Few weeks back I received a SMS alert late night about possibility of heavy rainfall and chance of flood in river nearby by house. The SMS was sent by Weather forecasting division and I was among thousands to receive alert from the area. Considering the message and weather forecast many houses nearby river moved upwards to avoid flood. Following morning a heavy rainfall occurred and river entered the village causing massive flood. The Flood caused heavy loss of properties but no human casualty was recorded. Post flood locals and government is planning to stop sand mining and conduct afforestation programme around river bank. Thanks to weather forecasting division and SMS alert. On further research I came to know about websites, radio and television alerts, message bots customized for weather forecasting nearby us. The perfect solution of heavy rainfall and flood is not these alerts but at the same time this small piece of information helped to save many human lives. When nature and human fight each other the war often ends with heavy loss on human side.

Hi Sachin Regmi, this is a mentor, Sang Su Lee.
I guess floods are serious problems right now in Asian countries. South Korea, China, Japan and even Nepal are suffering from heavy rain! During this emergency, SMS would really help people save lives. However, will there be fundamental solutions to prevent flood from happening?
Take care~ I hope you stay healthy and safe..
Green cheers!

Hello Sachin Regmi, this is mentor Taehyun!
First of all, I am so glad that there are no casualties caused by heavy rain... Due to the formation of a large seasonal rain front in East Asia, there is news that the situation in China is especially serious, so I hope there will be no casualties, and I hope the rainy season will end soon. Take care of yourself.
Thank you for the report!
Green cheers!

Hello sachin,
You have mentioned the alarming message sent by government to save people from the floods and landslides. I hope there will be focus on sustainable development and crisis management. It is very sad news that people are dying due to natural disaster.
