On 16 August 2024, two glacier lakes burst in Thame village of the Everest region in Solukhumbu District of Nepal, causing a glacier lake outburst flood (GLOF). The flood damaged a number of households in Khumbu Pasanglhamu Rural Municipality. Glacial lake outburst floods occur when water suddenly drains from a glacier-fed lake after the failure of a natural dam made of ice or moraine. These floods are a recognized hazard in the Himalayas, where expanding glacial lakes and unstable moraine dams can increase the risk of downstream flooding. In recent decades, scientists and disaster-risk agencies have raised growing concern about glacial lake hazards in the Himalayan region. Rising temperatures have contributed to glacier retreat and the formation or expansion of moraine-dammed lakes, some of which are located upstream of populated valleys. Monitoring programs in Nepal have identified several lakes as potentially dangerous, particularly where settlements and infrastructure lie downstream.
