The Government of Indonesia is already stretched from various natural disasters, including the imminent eruption of Mt Merapi, and has limited resources to respond to this emergency. He said atrocious weather in the north of the country could increase the chances of pneumonia and polluted water supplies increased the risk of waterborne diseases. The quakes flattened hundreds of houses, cracked more than 1,000 roads and triggered 11 fires, police and municipal officials said. KATHMANDU, Aug 22 (AFP) - Police and soldiers have reached a remote Nepalese village where up to 100 people are feared buried under a mudslide triggered by lashing monsoon rains, state radio said Thursday. Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao ordered rescuers to remove barriers and open up roads to the epicenter before 12 p.m. Tuesday after a strong earthquake jolted Southwest China's Sichuan Province Monday afternoon. When the weather worsens and wet weather begins, it is going to prove impossible to pass, he warned, adding that in the winter, bulldozers would be needed to pull the trucks out of the snow.

My youngest son, who is six, has severe stomach cramps and diarrhoea. In the same year Tokyo also unveiled what was billed as the world's first wide-scale quake alert system, designed to give public utilities and citizens a few seconds advance notice before a tremor reaches them. It is important to consider the fact that Ibnat town, being located at the western edge of the wereda and at an altitude of around 2000 meters still part of the highlands which enjoy generally more favourable climatic conditions. Wildfire, deliberate burning - mostly to get pasture grasses regenerated and control animal exo-parasites like ticks, deforestation and bush clearing are major threats to the biodiversity of this unique ecosystem. The floods began in late July in the northwest after exceptionally heavy monsoon rains, expanding rivers that have since swamped eastern Punjab province and Sindh province in the south. Thus far, extreme cold weather conditions have been affecting Thailand since November this year and would likely to continue until mid-February of 2009. The e-mail from Marta Benavides came days after the first, devastating earthquake shook El Salvador on January 13. According to area-wise distribution, 46% area of the country received excess to normal rainfall, 35% deficient rainfall and 19% area received scanty rainfall between September 11 and 17. Because of the widespread public support it received, DEVELOPMENT AND PEACE is also eligible for $11.7 million in matching funds from the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA). Around 15,000 people fled their homes on Manam Island off PNG's north coast after a series of volcanic explosions in late 2004. The temporary schools are located in the villages of Kareung Ateuh, Keude Unga and Cuenamprong, in the district of Aceh Jaya, and are currently one of the few educational facilities in these areas. But even with people on the ground, Myanmar currently suffers a shortage of the plastic sheeting that is needed get families out of the monsoonal downpours and under cover. Its deadliest eruption occurred in 1930 when more than 1,300 people were killed. Prices are expected to continue climbing as the cold wintery weather continues, JP Morgan Chase, the investment bank, said in its 2011 China Economic Outlook. Fung Wong will be the strongest tropical storm so far this year, and will strike along China's eastern and southern regions with heavy rain and strong winds, according to observatories in Fujian, Guangdong, Zhejiang and Jiangxi provinces. During past 24 hours fairly widespread rainfall with heavy to very heavy rainfall has occurred over Madhya Pradesh, Orissa and Vidarbha. Tharparker district lies in the Great Indian Desert and scattered rain fed agriculture is practiced in some parts. Heavy continuous monsoon rains have inundated the northern provinces of Pakistan. Located on the Eastern coast of Japan, the six nuclear power reactors at Daiichi are boiling water reactors (BWRs). Water purification tablets were distributed and the boiling of water only served as a short term solution. In addition, the heavy unseasonable rains in parts of the country in October and November have damaged crops and led to pre-harvest losses according to preliminary information from the field according to WFP report; this will further affect households' recovery from current acute food insecurity. In Zambia the unusually severe drought has caused severe food shortages. Mountainous terrain, cold weather, and damaged or collapsed infrastructure affect the delivery of humanitarian assistance. These temperatures are perceived as severe cold by the general population, who are used to much warmer weather, even at this time of the year. The OLF has pursued armed opposition since leaving the coalition government in 1993, and has been blamed for insecurity on the roads in eastern Haraghe, now vital for transportation of relief supplies into the Ogaden region. Since 1999, the combination of many causes and the severity of the summer droughts followed by unusually cold temperatures in autumn and then very heavy snowfalls and extremely low temperatures in winter, have given rise to the term multiple dzud", to describe this complex phenomenon.

However, I must stress that the United Nations system's efforts to mobilize international assistance to fight the catastrophic fires must continue. The capital recorded the heaviest rainfall for 100 years. The situation from the damage caused by heavy snowfall and rains over the past two weeks is becoming clear as the weather has started improving in southern and western parts of Balochistan. Bangkok (Mizzima) - At least 35 people were killed and 135 were injured according to unofficial estimates following a 5.4 magnitude earthquake which hit Yingjiang in China's Yunnan Province on Thursday afternoon, rescue teams say. Sonny Ugoh, communications director of the sub-regional body, says ECOWAS has expressed concern about the food shortage crisis and will continue to help provide assistance to those affected. Flash floods triggered by torrential monsoon rain during the past 48 hours have claimed over 20 lives in Gujarat. The landslides occurred after a three-hour torrential downpour drenched the area early Sunday. Failed harvests According to UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), two consecutive below-average rainfall seasons have resulted in failed harvests, depletion of grazing resources and significant livestock mortality in the Horn of Africa region. One million inhabitants of Tajikistan face frigid winters without access to electricity, due to power shortages, and rapid increases in electricity and water tariffs fall especially on the poor. Rains in Mozambique triggered flash floods in parts of Malawi's resort district of Mangochi, destroying over 100 homes, district commissioner Timothy Chirwa told Reuters by telephone. MSF has started measles vaccination campaigns in dozens of makeshift camps where thousands of people have gathered after fleeing the exceptional drought and the violence in other parts of the country. With the severest heatwave in Russia in decades impacting areas as diverse as sales of anti-pollution masks and agricultural yields, Prime Minister Vladimir Putin dramatically banned grain exports until December 31. More rains have been forecast in the next few days as the southwest monsoon season, which runs from May to September, hit the island nation. Sumatra lies along the Pacific Ring of Fire", one of the world's most active seismic faultlines, and is frequently hit by earthquakes.

We are seeing very intense, torrential showers over a short period of time completely saturating the ground. On October 31 a massive cyclone hit the state of Orissa in northern India. For other diseases in this category, such as giardiasis and infection by helminths (such as hookworm), no data were readily available as these diseases are not notifiable. According to official government assessments, approximately 184,000 hectares of oil palm plantations were affected by lowland flooding. CARE International, the world's third largest aid agency, is warning a serious public health threat could be on the way as the floodwater recedes. In other areas, the parasitic weed, Striga hermonitheca (witchweed), which is especially problematic on Sorghum grown in nutrient poor soils, is now widespread throughout the rain-dependent cropping areas of northern Ethiopia, where it significant lowers potential crop yields. JAKARTA, Jan 24 (AFP) - A strong earthquake shook Indonesia's Sulawesi island Monday, damaging dozens of shops and homes and prompting thousands to flee for fear of a repeat of last month's tsunami disaster. Besides, other projects have also been supported such as: planting mangrove forest, enhancing capacity of community; transferring clean technology, clean development mechanism, eliminating substances causing ozone depletion, etc. Another earthquake shakes north-eastern Afghanistan. Israel offered assistance to Pakistan after a massive 7.6-magnitude earthquake rattled the country on October 8, despite the absence of relations between the two countries. ROME - The connection between climate and hunger was made abundantly clear this summer when torrential rain lashed Pakistan, causing devastating flooding that submerged farmland, obliterated crops and left 10 million people in need of food aid. The scale of the rehabilitation programme, in addition to the difficult environment, particularly the incessant monsoon rain and the acute shortage of masons, has resulted in a further extension of the operation until 31 December 2000. Its deadliest eruption occurred in 1930 when more than 1,300 people were killed. In addition to Assam, West Bengal and Bihar, the states of Arunachal Pradesh, Andra Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Himachal Pradesh and Marahastra have also experienced extensive flooding caused by the seasonal monsoon rains. While the country grapples with rising food prices, there are daily power cuts lasting three hours and 20mins in 78 regions with high electricity consumption as the hydropower sector buckles under more intense heat and quicker water evaporation. Famine Early Warning System (FEWS)/Somalia estimates losses of Gu'crops in traditional underground granaries due to floods and rain water seepage at 31,1000 tones. The Branch, with Appeal funds, successfully completed the water distribution and support programme, delivering containers and water via the Branch ambulance boat. It is a project, which will be implemented in all tsunami-affected districts before the monsoon winds and rain begin in October. The earthquake rocked the region around 6 a.m. Saturday killing more than 5,100 people, seriously injuring 6,500 and leaving 200,000 homeless, according to the Indonesian government. We also encourage medical workers - nurses, doctors, and physicians assistants - who are interested in joining this historic response to register at www.usaid.gov/ebola/volunteers. BPPTK Yogyakarta reported that 178 multi phase tremors, 3 shallow volcanic tremors and one tectonic tremor occurred on Monday (24 Apr.). We predicted snowfall in the end of November, and it is the beginning of the harsh weather now."

Locally, in March we are conducting our largest annual fundraising event, Red Cross Calling, which raises funds to support vulnerable Australians, right here in our own communities. Without clothes or shoes, the thousands of men, women and children made destitute by the cyclone could only stand in the mud and rain of the latest tropical downpour, their hands clasped together in supplication at the occasional passing aid vehicle. Jacobabad received the heaviest downpour of 305mm (over 12 inches), while Sukkur, Thull, Kandhkot, Kashmore, Khanpur Mahar, Ghotki, Daharki, Mirpur Mathelo, Rohri, Ali Wahan and Shikarpur received five to 282 millimetres of rain. Mercy Corps needs your generous donation as its efforts in Pakistan continue and expand. (a) Due to the persistence of drought and the probable food deficit in the Northwest Pastoral and Southeast Pastoral sub-zones caused by abnormal rainfall during Karan/Karma (the main rainy season this year), the Minister of Interior launched a joint UN Agencies and Djibouti Government mission, following a meeting held on 25 October. Many people die of heat related illnesses in Pakistan every summer but this has been one of the worst years in memory. The manual revolutionized training for visiting nurses and was subsequently accredited and adopted by the Russian Federation to be included into the standard nursing curriculum. A huge undersea earthquake off the Aceh coast triggered the tsunami on Dec. 26. Authorities have warned that monsoonal rain will worsen in the next two weeks. The situation in Bangladesh is improving in the west of the country, and as the flood waters subside people are returning to their villages. Somalia has suffered two decades of conflict, worsening droughts and heavy flooding. If, as forecast, the heavy rain continues throughout September, the number of vulnerable children could rise into the hundreds of thousands. The oppressive heat, the blazing midday sun, the dust and the flies make it difficult for children to concentrate on learning and for teachers to teach. The powerful tremor killed dozens of people and injured more than 2,000. The variability of I-131 relatively to the radio-caesium concentrations could be an indication of retention of caesium by the zeolite sandbags in place, which would have almost no effect on iodine or further production of decay products in the reactor. Both the winter and spring rainfed wheat crop, harvested during June-July, has almost totally failed in most places as a result of drought. At a loss, she set up an online fundraising platform. New Oxfam report says retreating glaciers and more extreme weather like droughts and floods could dangerously erode food security, livelihoods and even regional stability by 2050. The heavy downpour brought down the maximum temperature by almost 4 degree Celsius. Geologists have said they expect an eruption of Kelut would comprise of heat clouds", searing gases and volcanic debris rushing down the slopes, similar to the most recent eruption in 1990 that left 34 dead.

World Vision has mobilised its entire international network to help, both in the relief work across the affected countries and in raising vital funds. Volunteers, many from local Christian Aid partner organisations, used loud speakers, hand-held sirens and hoisted flags to warn remote communities of the approaching storm, which sent a million people fleeing to evacuation centres. To cope with the situation, communities in Buhera District (Manicaland Province) are reportedly illegally selling mopane trees, aggravating deforestation. LUCKNOW: At least 27 people perished in heavy rains lashing large parts of Uttar Pradesh since Sunday evening, pushing the death count in the state this monsoon season to 73. The northern and eastern parts of the country received less rain in the past northeastern monsoon and expect inter monsoonal showers these days. Regarding the media's enquiries about the case of The Association of Chinese Evangelical Ministry, a charitable organisation in Hong Kong, which encountered difficulty in delivering relief materials to Sichuan, the Bureau first learned about the difficulties faced by the association on July 22.
