flash floods and landslides in nepal have killed at least $43.00 people after 2 days of incessant rain the bug the river overflowed its banks destroying roadways and flooding towns more rain is now expected over the weekend so mistrust it has more now from katmandu. cars and motorbikes buried in mud after rivers quickly rose above the danger levels and burst their banks streets have been flooded the water flowing into her since thursday it's been raining steadily across nepal triggering flash floods and landslides hundreds of people have been evacuated from their homes and rescuers have been searching for those reported missing emergency services have also recovered some bodies in my skirts of the capital katmandu the heavy rains brought crashing down crushing

a section of the heart which are not the of the one the wall suddenly crumble we thought it was an earthquake by the time we came out the host was broken 20 members of one family were asleep at the time 3 of them died 2 women one of them pregnant and a child were sleeping in this little cottage over here when this wall came crumbling down a crushing the entire carters most of the people over who have been living here are construction workers and the structures that they're living in it's very unsafe. every monsoon season now faces floods and landslides but in the cities people have been allowed to build houses and businesses too close to the rivers and the water then has nowhere else to go major highways have been blocked by landslides and the security forces have been called in to help in the rescue operations out but big you need to be 80 to 90 percent of all of our units have been deployed for rescue

operation but disaster response is not only about human resources we need resources like equipment and transportation as well. meteorologists say more rain is expected through to sunday scientists have been warning that because of climate change monsoon patterns are also changing and the region needs to prepare for more extreme weather severe droughts as well as more intense periods of rain it's been a stretch to us as they were that are due tropical storm barry has made landfall in the u.s. state of louisiana despite weakening from a category one hurricane it's still forecast to dump heavy rain that could last for days a stone cold ashore near intracoastal city about 257 kilometers west of new orleans more than 70000 people were already without power on saturday morning in louisiana and mississippi louisiana's governor had this message for residents in his state

also a cautionary read this is just the beginning. i ask everyone to stay vigilant. and be safe. this is always been projected to be raining flabby and it will be the vast majority of the rain that's falling right now is family member growth that will soon change as the storm continues to move north. well christopher bannon is a meteorologist at the national weather service and joins me now on skype from slidell louisiana and it is of course the rain rather than the when that is the big concern in louisiana can you tell us more about how long it's likely to last and how heavy the rainfall could be. yes ma'am that is our greatest concern right now most of the rain as you heard earlier is in the gulf of mexico and remain to the south and east of the storm but as the storm moves inland overnight tonight we're expecting some bouts of pretty heavy rain across central and southeastern louisiana

and that rain may persist through a good portion of the day sunday and then as very continues to move north that heavy rain florence going to continue to move north into north louisiana mississippi and then eventually arkansas and tennessee sunday night into monday so it looks like for some of central southeast louisiana we've we're going to be under the gun for what the next 24 hours for a threat of a flash flooding and a very heavy rainfall heavy rainfall on sunday and monday but is there also the possibility that it could continue beyond that point for our area demo south louisiana we're not anticipating much after sunday but that heavy rain for it could definitely move into what we call the tennessee and ohio valleys throughout the early portions of the workweek and then as it continues to move north it's going to continue to bring that gulf moisture northward and continue to cause rain across other parts of ringback the united states. how much of a risk does this pose to the levee system which was of course built to contain the

lower mississippi is it likely that it will be able to withstand this level of rainfall. yes ma'am the levee system is very sound right now it's holding pretty strong the biggest concern was storm surge in the new orleans area as the water was going to be pushed back up over the back up towards new orleans there was some concern that it could approach the top the levees but the storm surge likely did not get to where we are expecting it and it's remained well below the top levees and they are operating as expected. just tell me about the nature of this storm it's been downgraded and this sort of status of this of the storm has shifted several times why has it been so erratic because rob is just it never got its act together it was fighting what we call sheer injury here pretty much its entire life once it the weather system actually emerged into the gulf of mexico it really

struggled to get it get going and then when it tried every time we tried to shear in drier keep hurting the system and won these tropical systems when they can't develop showers and storms are we call core they just don't they they struggle and they continue to struggle continue to struggle even though it did eventually become a hurricane just prior to landfall it still was not your classic tropical system we were speaking about some 70000 people already without power on saturday i mean obviously there is an element to all of this that is outside of anybody's control but what can authorities do to really minimize the impact of. a storm like this. you know right now their door they can just we want to keep you know tell people to stay inside and that's what they're doing they're like if you don't have to get out stay home right now our biggest concern again is the flooding threats and if they're out hole as long as they're not driving you know they should remain safe for the most part intil we have to worry about possible rivers later in the work week but right now it's just stay hunkered down stay home and don't go anywhere if

you don't have to from slidell louisiana christopher bannon joining us that fact q . thank you very much of a good day. an operation to raid the homes of thousands of undocumented migrants intensity is across the united states is due to begin on sunday protests against the mass raids have been held in philadelphia the operation is expected to target hundreds of families have recently been told to leave the u.s. but have not yet gone president announced plans for the raids on twitter last month but they were delayed partly because of disagreements within his administration is left on documented migrants across the country fearing that they could be arrested . ferrous. every time the laws become stricter it makes it difficult it causes a path it's more repression with the law but as human beings we go on coming up with ways to survive in this country and i say survive in this country because we

a persecution that imagine how we are in our home countries. for us as the children of migrants we're scared to. hear a knock on the door because it can be we can take our parents. for example when going to hear someone knock on the door and tell my sister be quiet we can't make noise because somebody is inside the house and we don't we don't want anything to happen and we live with this fear day by day and. we just wanted to stop. well. he is the legal and advocacy director at the social justice and project south and joins me now on skype from atlanta georgia which is one of the cities where they are due to carry out these raids and migrant families must be incredibly anxious and fearful about how this could play out can

you give us a sense of how they are reacting and also what advice people have been given ahead of these raids. right and you know i think part of the intention of the administration with the conflicting messages coming out in terms of the timing of the raids is precisely that to spread terror and fear in the community but you know projects out my organization along with other organizations are reaching out to community members in terms of providing know your rights masseria alls and our advice to my gran's is to stay inside and not to open the door i mean it is you say you're saying that the administration has sort of publicized this in order to spread that fear but i mean is there also a an advantage to some extent because it allows people to prepare if they know that they're going to be pursued then they know that they just need to refuse to answer

the door and that element of surprise isn't there right i mean that is our advice to people all the time in terms of the their interaction with law enforcement not to open the door and to stay silent when they come into contact with law enforcement in terms of what actually happened and whether to write you know the raids are going to happen tomorrow or not it remains to be seen i mean there's not a lot of the transparency to be expected on the part of ice or from the brother administration because we know these raids have been postponed in the past do you think that there is still on certainty over this operation could it be postponed again because of that level of dissension within the department of homeland security. right you know where i'm sure but 6 one thing is for certain you know raids and you really i grafted in force many. local law enforcement in a state like georgia have been happening for years now so it's not anything new and

immigrant communities know that they have to be prepared and to be ready to defend and protect their rights if the operation does go ahead will it include the rounding up and detention of children well in the mix that that is believed and you know you have u.s. citizen children involved and you know the situation is going to be really complicated because 6 then you know supposedly dark areas have to wait until you know there is a there is a family member or a foster family who's going to accept responsibility for the child and so you know i think is definitely going to add to the to the complications and to the emotional trauma that that that will be involved in the situation thank you very much shy and shy from the from the social justice and project south we do appreciate
