"The causes of landslides are not a mystery to mankind. Layers of rock and soil such that rain running along a clay or rock layer can create a slippery surface for the weight of the layers above it is a common cause. A rock jumble from previous mountain building, broken or fractured rock easily dislodged. We have stated that the earthquakes man experiences between the periodic passages of Planet X can be considered aftershocks from the last passage, and this is true of landslides also. Mountain building rumples the landscape, so the land is not flat but has steep ravines and hill sides. Older mountain ranges are recognized for their rounded or smoothed appearance, because of frequent landslides distributing the rubble.

"As we approach another passage, another Pole Shift, the pace of landslides has picked up. Why would this be? Plates under pressure will put pressure on regions that contain rumpled hillsides and deep ravines, as these give more readily than strictly flat land, thus act as a weak link. In addition, due to the wobble, the weather has gotten more extreme, with drought and deluge increasing in extremes. Dry ground, suddenly flooded with rainwater needing to seek its level as runoff, will create internal water slides between the rock and soil layers that constitute the rumpled hillsides. Is there an early warning system that mankind could use? The trembles that soil about to slide emits could be detected, yes. These are not earthquakes, and have their own frequency. "

At Least Twelve Dead In The Landslide Of The Peñas Blancas; Feared Up To 30

Nov 18 2020

The landslide of approximately a length of 1,000 meters and a width of 200 meters occurred on Tuesday. Search and rescue efforts continue. The unofficial death and missing number is much higher.

TODAY NICARAGUA – At least twelve people died in a landslide in the Macizo Peñas Blancas, in the municipality of El Tuma-La Dalia, in northern Nicaragua.

On Wednesday afternoon, 12 deaths have been confirmed, while another 19 people have been rescued alive.

At least 15 others have been reported missing.

The tragedy occurred in the Los Roques sector, in the San Martín de Peñas Blancas community, in the Matagalpa department (province).

Members of the Nicaraguan Army, Police, Fire Department, Minsa, Comupred and Codepred participated in the rescue efforts.

Authorities indicated this Wednesday that a brigade made up of 100 people are involved in the search and rescue in an area that is difficult to access due to the ravages of Iota.

The Army is using dogs to search for any survivors.

The government assures that the families in “previous years received a proposal to relocate a place because they were in a risk zone, but they did not accept, they were also advised to evacuate before the arrival of the hurricane, but they decided to stay.”

The Bishop of the Diocese of Matagalpa, Monsignor Rolando Álvarez, lamented the tragedy and assured that priests are moving to the area to make themselves available.

“Deep sorrow for what has happened to us in the Macizo Peñas Blancas, between La Dalia and Rancho Grande. At this moment our priests are mobilizing to that area and we are making ourselves available to all who are affected. I will keep you informed,” tweeted the Monsignor.

Video: Concerns over massive peat slide at Co Donegal bog

16 November, 2020 01:00

CONSERVATIONISTS have expressed concern about a dramatic landslide resulting from peat slippage at a bog in Co Donegal.

Footage of trees being swept away as tonnes of peat slipped downhill near Meenbog Wind Farm, close to Ballybofey and the Co Tyrone border, went viral at the weekend.

The wind farm is owned by Invis Energy who said: "Invis Energy, owner of the Meenbog wind farm, confirms that a peat slippage occurred at the site.  There is no risk to public health.  We are working with the relevant authorities to fully address the matter. We are grateful to the local community for their continued support."

The local Gweebarra Conservation Group warned that thousands of tonnes of peat and conifer trees potentially entering the Mournebeg River was "a catastrophe for spawning salmon and trout".

The group also said it "remains to be seen" if drinking water would be affected and warned that as bogs are 'carbon sinks', an unknown quantity of carbon would have been released into the atmosphere.

A spokesperson for Irish Water said there was "no immediate concern for water services in the Finn Valley", due to the displaced peat and trees entering the river downstream of the Lough Mourne reservoir.

Both Donegal County Council and cross-border body The Loughs Agency are also investigating the incident near Barnesmore Gap.

Meanwhile, Derry City and Strabane Sinn Féin councillor Kieran McGuire urged NI Water to liaise with their counterparts in Irish Water to "urgently assess the situation" and ensure drinking water in both Co Donegal and Co Tyrone is safe.

He added: "This is an extremely worrying and developing situation."

Soldiers and villagers dig through mud after a landslide swamps a village in Phuoc Loc district, Quang Nam province, Vietnam on Thursday, Oct. 29, 2020. Three separated landslides triggered by typhoon Molave killed over a dozen villagers and left dozens more missing in the province as rescuers scramble to recover more victims.

Typhoon Molave, landslides leave 35 dead, 59 missing in Vietnam


HANOI, Vietnam — Typhoon Molave set off landslides that killed at least 19 people and left 45 missing in central Vietnam, where ferocious wind and rain blew away roofs and knocked out power in a region of 1.7 million residents, state media said Thursday.

The casualties from the landslides bring the over-all death toll from the storm to at least 35, including 12 fishermen whose boats sank Wednesday as the typhoon approached with winds of up to 93 miles per hour. Vietnamese officials say it’s the worst typhoon to hit the country in 20 years.

At least 59 people remain missing in the landslides and at sea. The toll may rise with many regions still unable to report details of the devastation amid the stormy weather.

Rescuers dug up eight bodies Thursday morning in Tra Van village in south central Quang Nam province where a hillside collapsed on houses. The victims had taken shelter in the community as the typhoon approached, the official Vietnam News Agency reported.

In Tra Leng village, about 28 miles from Tra Van, another landslide buried a community with several houses occupied by about 45 people. Four managed to escape. Rescuers have recovered eight bodies and were scrambling to save 37 others, Vietnam News said.

Tra Leng remains inaccessible due to damaged roads and other landslides and government disaster-response teams were using bulldozers and excavators to open up a road to bring in more rescuers and heavy equipment.

Deputy Prime Minister Trinh Dinh Dung traveled to the site where soldiers were clearing up a landslide with bulldozers and ordered officers to urgently bring in troops to the landslide-hit village.

“We must reach the landslide site the fastest way. First, send in more soldiers before we can get the big machine there. We have to reach the area by all means, including by using helicopters,” he said.

As troops scrambled to rescue those buried alive in Tra Leng, another part of a rain-soaked mountainside cascaded down in a torrent of mud in nearby Phuoc Loc district Thursday morning, trapping 11 people. Three bodies were pulled out immediately by villagers, Vietnam News said.

Other villagers in Phuoc Loc were advised to flee to safety given the unstable mountain slope.

The three landslide-hit areas lie in the mountains of the hard-hit province of Quang Nam in a coastal region still recovering from floods that killed 136 people and destroyed hundreds of houses earlier this month.

Four people were killed by falling trees and collapsed houses in Quang Nam and Gia Lai provinces when the typhoon slammed into the coast Wednesday. Navy search and rescue boats found the bodies of 12 of 26 fishermen whose boats sank Wednesday off Binh Dinh province, state media said.

The typhoon blew off roofs of about 56,000 houses and caused a massive blackout in Quang Ngai province, where 1.7 million people endured the typhoon onslaught overnight in darkness, according to Vietnam News.

At least 40,000 people were evacuated to emergency shelters and authorities shut down offices, factories and schools to prevent casualties.

The typhoon left at least 16 people dead in the Philippines before blowing across the South China Sea toward Vietnam.

Landslide forces Sydney residents to evacuate as wild weather lashes coast

10:21AM OCTOBER 26, 2020

Sydney has been plunged into chaos after severe weather swept through the state, causing flash flooding and triggering a landslide at a remote walking trail in the city’s north.

Aerial footage shows the land spill at the Mackerel trail near Palm Beach that came within metres of several properties and caused severe damage to at least one home at Mackerel Beach.

Another two properties were “partly” damaged

Residents at 18 addresses – totalling 25 people – have been evacuated, while officials at the Northern Beaches Council have been called in to assess the damage, a NSW SES spokesman said.

Sydney’s Northern Beaches have already copped 100mm of rain in the last three days with more on the way as flash flooding prompted road closures and left many homes without power.

The news comes as Australia’s east coast battles a hammering from mother nature.

Australia has been hit by more than 2.24 million lightning strikes in just 48 hours, while damaging winds of up to 100km/h continue to rip through multiple states, with volunteers inundated with calls for help.

More storms are expected this week.

“This is peak storm season,” BOM meteorologist Dean Narramore said.

Sydneysiders can expect the storms to hit on Tuesday and Wednesday, with the peak predicted for the latter.

Landslide kills 11 miners in Indonesia

All bodies recovered from coal mine in South Sumatra, says official

22-10-2020

JAKARTA

A landslide caused by heavy rains killed at least 11 miners at a coal mine in Indonesia’s South Sumatra province on Wednesday.

According to the National Disaster Mitigation Agency, the site of the landslide was a mine tunnel about 20 meters deep at Tanjung Lalang village in Muara Enim district.

“Seasonal rains in recent days have caused the landslide,” said Raditya Jati, a spokesperson at disaster mitigation authority .

He said all the bodies have been recovered and handed over to their families.

The agency previously warned that the ongoing La Nina weather phenomenon could increase total precipitation in Indonesia by up to 40% until February 2021.

The spokesperson urged people to prepare for heavy rains and strong winds and to remain alert for floods and landslides.

Indonesia landslides kill 11 including infant twins

September 28, 2020

Two 10-month-old twins were among at least 11 people killed in landslides across an Indonesian city early on Monday, a search and rescue officer said. 

Several houses were buried in four separate locations around Tarakan on Borneo island after hours of heavy rain and strong winds. 

Five children were among the dead while four other people were rescued alive.    

"The heavy rain and strong wind triggered landslides in several locations at almost the same time and some people could not save themselves," local search and operation chief Amiruddin, who like many Indonesians goes by one name, told AFP on Monday.

"Among the victims we retrieved the body of a father and his 10-month-old twin boys," he added.

At least 19 homes were damaged across Tarakan.

Fatal landslides and flash floods are very common across the Indonesian archipelago, where seasonal downpours are frequent and relentless.

Dozens of people died in July after flash floods and landslides hit part of South Sulawesi province. 

Indonesia's disaster agency has estimated that 125 million Indonesians -- nearly half the country's population -- live in areas at risk of landslides.

September 27, 2020

Butwal, September 27

At least six houses have been destroyed by a landslide in Dungesera, Shitganga municipality of Arghakhanchi on Saturday night.

Over 20 others are at risk.

The municipality’s ward 11 chairman Kapil Aale Magar says human casualties, however, were not recorded. “The hill where the neighbourhood lived has begun to cave in,” he says, “The six houses cannot be used now.”

The landslide has not stopped, and a team of the municipality including the mayor are visiting the site today, according to him.

Recently, 47 families living nearby have been displaced due to the landslide risk. They have been temporarily kept at a local school.

Locals say they have noticed several cracks on the land surface in the area in the past few years. They, however, had continued agricultural activities there.

Two women cricketers killed, three missing as landslide buries houses in Meghalaya

Updated Sep 26, 2020 | 08:01 IST

Meanwhile, incessant rainfall since Monday has left a trail of devastation across the state, a state disaster management authority official told PTI.

Shillong: Two women cricketers were killed and three others went missing after a massive landslide triggered by incessant rainfall hit their houses at Mawnei in Meghalaya's East Khasi Hills district on Friday, officials said.

Bodies of cricketers Razia Ahmed, who played for the state at the national level, and Ferozia Khan, a local player, were retrieved from the debris, Mawnei locality headman Bah Bud told PTI.

East Khasi Hills district Superintendent of Police Sylvester Nongtynger said that efforts are on find out the missing persons.
Meghalaya Cricket Association general secretary Gideon Kharkongor said Razia had represented the state in various national-level tournaments since 2011-12.

Other players also condoled her death in the natural calamity.

"We will miss Razia and we pray that her soul finds eternal rest," woman cricketer Kakoli Chakraborty said.

Meanwhile, incessant rainfall since Monday has left a trail of devastation across the state, a state disaster management authority official told PTI.

Two workers engaged by the police in clearing the debris at their quarters in Shillong died on Thursday, officials said.
Landslides were reported from several areas across the state and PWD workers were pressed into service to clear the debris.

A portion of the Riangdo-Bamil road, at Mawshynrut- Thaiem and the Mawshynrut-Hahim road were damaged affecting traffic movement in West Khasi Hills district.
