Comments:
High temperature and rapid snow and glacier melting from 1 - 22 July 2015 triggered mudflows and floods in mountains regions of Tajikistan. According to preliminary assessments, abrupt increase of air temperature in many mountainous areas of Tajikistan intensified the glaciers melting and caused floods as well as water level increase in rivers. This occurred along the basins of rivers Pyanj, Gund, Vakhsh, Zaravshan, Kafernigan, Isfara and Isfana.
