Millions Evacuated After Catastrophic Flooding Hits China, Pakistan

You repeatedly suggested that this flooding was normal monsoon rainfall. Now you say it isn't. Where I come from, that would earn YOU then title of "ASSHOLE"

As for datas:

Catastrophic floods have taken more than 150 lives in China and Pakistan this weekend after days of heavy rain.

In China, 128 have been killed and another 42 people have been reported missing according to figures released by the Ministry of Civil Affairs, China.org.cn reports.


A mudslide in Guizhou Province killed 23, state media told the BBC. Eight more people died in the city of Wuhan in Hubei Province when a section of a wall collapsed.

About 18 inches of rain fell in Macheng, China, in the four days ending 8 a.m. local time on Monday, said weather.com meteorologist Chris Dolce.

The rain collapsed more than 40,000 houses and forced the evacuation of nearly 1.5 million people in 11 regions, mostly along the Yangtze River and its distributaries, China.org.cn reports, and nearly 600,000 people are in urgent need of basic living assistance.

The rain has also destroyed more than 700,000 acres of crops, the Xinhua news agency reports. Floods and landslides are also affecting telecommunication and electricity facilities, halting or delaying traffic in some regions. The ministry estimated total economic losses of $5.73 billion.

State television on Saturday showed people using boats to navigate flooded streets in eastern Anhui province. Anhui's civil affairs department said 18 people have died and four are missing due to heavy rain since June 18.

Vice Premier Wang Yang warned last month that there was a high possibility of floods in the Yangtze River and Huai River basins this year, which equate to a large swath of China's southern, central and eastern areas.

In Pakistan, heavy monsoon rains and flash floods have claimed at least 30 lives and washed away a mosque and several houses in Ursoon, an area of Chitral.

Thirteen people are still missing in Chitral, the district’s deputy commissioner Usama Waraich told Gulf News, adding that authorities were evacuating some residents with more rain forecast Monday.

The mayor of Chitral district, Maghfirat Shah said the flash flooding hit as people were offering up special Ramadan prayers at the mosque. Dozens of worshippers were swept away in the floodwaters, which destroyed the mosque and damaged several nearby houses and a security post.

Afghan authorities also said they had recovered 13 bodies, including eight Pakistani soldiers, which had been swept over the border from Chitral into Afghanistan, Gulf News said.

The provincial chief minister, Pervez Khattak, expressed his grief over the tragedy and announced that the families would receive compensation of $300 for each loss of life. He said that he had given orders for disaster management officials to quickly provide the affected communities with tents, food, medicine and other relief goods.

The Associated Press contributed to this report.

It seems you wouldn't recognize "data" if it slapped you across the face.


...becuz CO2!!!! Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!! DEATH TO THE DENIERS!!
 
Wow, monsoons never killed anyone in Asia before....

And the WitheredMan comes up with his usual lame straw-man argument which no one ever claimed.

What he has no real response to is the fact that severe flooding is getting worse as the increased water vapor levels increase the amount of rainfall over the course of a storm.
you have no evidence that supports that statement. That is your opinion and not fact, so its point is useless here. You have no evidence that there are worse storms today then anytime in history. you just don't. you wish to lie to mislead people into a trap.:cuckoo:
 
Water Vapor Confirmed as Major Player in Climate Change

Water vapor is known to be Earth’s most abundant greenhouse gas, but the extent of its contribution to global warming has been debated. Using recent NASA satellite data, researchers have estimated more precisely than ever the heat-trapping effect of water in the air, validating the role of the gas as a critical component of climate change.

Andrew Dessler and colleagues from Texas A&M University in College Station confirmed that the heat-amplifying effect of water vapor is potent enough to double the climate warming caused by increased levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.

With new observations, the scientists confirmed experimentally what existing climate models had anticipated theoretically. The research team used novel data from the Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) on NASA’s Aqua satellite to measure precisely the humidity throughout the lowest 10 miles of the atmosphere. That information was combined with global observations of shifts in temperature, allowing researchers to build a comprehensive picture of the interplay between water vapor, carbon dioxide, and other atmosphere-warming gases. The NASA-funded research was published recently in the American Geophysical Union's Geophysical Research Letters.

NASA - Water Vapor Confirmed as Major Player in Climate Change
 
and, oh by the way, we are still in all time record territory for no CAT 3 or higher strikes on the US - more than 10 years and counting - the STARTING POINT being ALL THE WARMER NOISE after Katrina.

Warmers said Katrina was "just the beginning." In reality, it was the beginning of the BIGGEST DROUGHT OF CANES ON RECORD.
next a tsunami will be due to climate change since it is in fact a flood and many die as a result like here in the OP.

Let's face it anything is due to climate change and all man's fault. It is the demonizing of society by progressives. They hate mankind, we're all bad. Ask any environmental wacko hugging trees. We were never supposed to build homes to live, or burn wood for heat, nope, they have chosen to chastise mankind. but I say F-off. and some other sayings as well. But a flood, it's all our faults.

You are the one who never has any evidence to support your fraudulent denier cult myths and lies, JustCrazy.

I just said that "severe flooding is getting worse" because human caused global warming has increased water vapor levels in the atmosphere. That is a scientifically observed reality with enormous of evidence supporting it. You have trouble seeing that evidence because you have your head lodged so far up your ass.

Andrew Dessler and colleagues from Texas A&M University in College Station confirmed that the heat-amplifying effect of water vapor is potent enough to double the climate warming caused by increased levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.

With new observations, the scientists confirmed experimentally what existing climate models had anticipated theoretically. The research team used novel data from the Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) on NASA’s Aqua satellite to measure precisely the humidity throughout the lowest 10 miles of the atmosphere. That information was combined with global observations of shifts in temperature, allowing researchers to build a comprehensive picture of the interplay between water vapor, carbon dioxide, and other atmosphere-warming gases. The NASA-funded research was published recently in the American Geophysical Union's Geophysical Research Letters.

The distribution of atmospheric water vapor, a significant greenhouse gas, varies across the globe. During the summer and fall of 2005, this visualization shows that most vapor collects at tropical latitudes, particularly over south Asia, where monsoon thunderstorms swept the gas some 2 miles above the land.

Human impact on the environment or anthropogenic impact on the environment includes impacts on biophysical environments, biodiversity, and other resources.[1][2] The term anthropogenic designates an effect or object resulting from human activity. The term was first used in the technical sense by Russian geologist Alexey Pavlov, and was first used in English by British ecologist Arthur Tansley in reference to human influences on climax plant communities.[3] The atmospheric scientist Paul Crutzen introduced the term "anthropocene" in the mid-1970s.[4] The term is sometimes used in the context of pollution emissions that are produced as a result of human activities but applies broadly to all major human impacts on the environment.[5]

false it was not an average or even above average monsoon.
but you just had to say something.

China’s Ministry of Civil Affairs (MCA) says that since 30 June, floods, hail, landslides, mudslides and other disasters have affected the 11 provinces of Jiangsu, Anhui, Jiangxi, Henan, Hubei, Hunan, Guangxi, Chongqing, Sichuan, Guizhou and Yunnan.

MCA say that over 1 million people have been relocated, and over half a million others have required emergency assistance. Around 40,000 houses have been destroyed or have collapsed and 248,000 have been damaged. More than 1.5 million hectares of cropland has also been damaged.

MCA estimate that the severe weather has caused direct economic losses of over 38 billion yuan (around 5.7 billion US dollars).

Since 30 June, several daily rainfall records have been broken, including in Macheng (285 mm), Jingmen (273 mm), Jiangxia (263 mm), Zhongxiang (230 mm), Huangpi (227 mm), all in Hubei Province, and Chaohu (293 mm) in Anhui Province, according to a statement by MCA.
