'Like a bomb exploded': How a 2000 feet wide glacier triggered deadly Nepal floods
The deadly flash floods that tore through Nepal’s Himalayan border region on Wednesday may have been triggered by a massive chunk of glacier breaking away high in the mountains and crashing into a river valley below. An initial analysis by geologists and glaciologists cited by The New York Times suggests the event was an ice avalanche — a sudden collapse in which a huge mass of ice falls from a glacier, generating a powerful surge of water, ice and debris.
