Where

Andhra Pradesh — and the river it runs into. Positions are real coordinates; the extent of the event is not known.

Frame 1,341 km wide. The ring is an area, not a point: the reporting names the region, not a location inside it. Positions of the downstream places are true.

What the satellite sees

Imagery published here, not linked to. The same public NASA layers a newsroom would use, over the region the reporting names, on the dates either side of the event.

What happens next

Two horizons. A level only where a published threshold and a number exist to put something against — everything else is named as a watch, not graded.

Next 24–72 hours

High More rain over the region Peak 82.4 mm in one day across the next 3, against IMD's heavy-rainfall threshold of 64.5 mm and very heavy at 115.5 mm.

The rainfall level is computed from a forecast model over a representative point — Open-Meteo forecast API, not a gauge at the event. The ungraded items are the mechanisms that follow this hazard. This page does not pretend to know their probability.

Reported

A headline is evidence that something was said. It is never evidence that it is true — which is why every figure at the top of this page carries the outlet that printed it and, where they disagree, all of them.

What is not established
  • Casualty and damage figures are not established here. Any number in the headlines below belongs to the outlet that printed it.
  • The mechanism is this page's reading of how the event was first reported, not a finding. Himalayan disasters are often reclassified once fieldwork is done.
  • The extent of the affected area has not been verified against satellite or official mapping.
  • Whether this event is continuing or has passed is not established.

This is one event

The standing picture — how much extreme rain India actually gets, what IMD counts as extreme, who the rain kills, and what is changing across twelve cities — is on the situation page this belongs to.

A gap is a gap

An empty day stays empty — a gap in the record is a gap in the record, never a zero.

The work against this reading

Mostly the written record, and going to look. Three of the essays on this site were reported out of flood years, and Gram Anubhav takes groups into villages living with this, run with over a hundred grassroots partners in the villages themselves.

And why it is not a reply

Publishing and going to see are not resilience. Swechha does not build drainage, and nothing here reduces the 3,594 deaths this page counts. What the work does is make the count harder to ignore — a smaller claim than it sounds, and the only one the evidence supports.
