What is the rupture of the cloud?
The cloud rupture, defined as an extremely heavy localized rain storm that decreases more than 10 cm of rain in a very short time above a small space, is especially common in mountain areas such as Uttarakhand. This phenomenon occurs when warm air currents cause rain drops to remain in the clouds until they suddenly fall into the stream, often accompanied by hail and thunder.

Himalayan terrain worsens the effects caused by steep slopes and fragile soil conditions, leading to lightning floods and landslides.
In Dharali, the cloud rupture of such landslides caused soil, while the heavy flow of water from the height of the water and residues into the village and caused significant floods.
Why and how does the cloud burst?
Cloudbursts occurs because the warm stream of air from the ground or under the clouds throws and carries falling rain drops with it.
The rain cannot fall into the permanent shower. This results in excessive condensation in the clouds, because new drops and old drops are pushed back into it. Then one of them gives up. Air current slows down or clouds cannot hold.
