Nepal's flash floods moved too fast for early warning systems, experts say

Scientists and disaster response researchers say Nepal's flash floods struck too rapidly for the country's early warning system to respond effectively. The system relies on a conventional network of river gauges in the remote affected region, which proved insufficient given the speed of the flooding. Experts are calling for modernisation and expansion of the warning infrastructure.
