Cloudbursts are short-duration, intense rainfall events over a small area.
According to the India Meteorological Department (IMD), it is a weather phenomenon with unexpected precipitation exceeding 100mm/h over a geographical region of approximately 20-30 square km. Hence, Statement 1 is correct.
In the Indian Subcontinent, it generally occurs when a monsoon cloud drifts northwards, from the Bay of Bengal or the Arabian Sea across the plains than onto the Himalayas and triggers debris flows, flash floods, landslides, and mass movements. Hence, Statement 2 is correct.
The relative humidity and cloud cover is at the maximum level with low temperature and slow winds because of which a high amount of clouds may get condensed at a very rapid rate and result in a cloudburst.
As temperatures increase, the atmosphere can hold more and more moisture and this moisture comes down as a short very intense rainfall for a short duration probably half an hour or one hour resulting in flash floods in the mountainous areas and urban floods in the cities.
The results showed that during the cloudburst, the relative humidity and cloud cover was at the maximum level with low temperature and slow winds.
It is expected that because of this situation a high amount of clouds may get condensed at a very rapid rate and result in a cloudburst.
