A report indicates that the deadly flash floods entered Nepal at 8:40 am on Wednesday, but authorities were not alerted until 8:56 am. Hydrologist Sauharda Joshi noted that by the time officials were informed, the water had already wiped out several villages. Joshi suggested that if Nepal had been notified while the flood was still developing in Tibet, the number of lives lost could have been greatly reduced.
