I appreciate your videos as a physical geographer by interest and degree. Toowoomba, in Queensland, Australia was struck by a very damaging flash flood on 10 January 2011. Caused several deaths and cost the Queensland State Government several hundred million to fix. Can't post a link because I'm having trouble with Youtube, but try searching "Toomwoomba flash flood" and clicking the one with 7 million hits.
It is interesting watching the various clips you have compiled here. Some seem to be rather thick and don't move as freely as a purely water based flow would. Others seem to flow more like a lahar. I imagine it is quite exciting to be on the spot when one of these events happens.
It is a lot of fun for sure. The behavior of the floods tends to come from the amount of debris in the way. If there are multiple floods in one year, they "clean" out the drainage basin. If there is only one or two, they tend to be carrying more logs and bushes and take on that more lahar look.
Just curious, but what kind of soil would yeild the white foam we see in most of these clips rather than the darker color in the first one, which I assume could indicate a high clay content?
dont get caught in that--that mud and debris is thousands of lb's and it would knock a strong man down and drown him in 3 to 4 inchs of water due to him not able to get back up.
As it exists in a different state than rock (solid) water (liquid). No, you can't. The average density of water is 1g cm^3, sedimentary rock is about 1.7 - 2.3g/cm^3. Water is some dense stuff. You want to walk on water, you can always go find a frozen pond.
@rankinstudio not stand on it like jump on it cuz u said it was like silicate rock. so if is as dense as it you could walk on it or like jump on it like corn starch and water
You are getting your states of matter and densities confused. You cant walk on molten lead, but it is more dense than rock. It is a liquid lol. This is a flood, it has a lot of debris in it including rock, but no, you can't come close to walking on it. You would be beat to death and drown at the same time.
Thank you for making me understand how arroyos/flashfloods work. Creeks in Ohio don't behave that way. They get dangerous, but they don't go from dry to roaaring in a heartbeat. Amazing.
@rankinstudio Is this something to do with your profession or you follow floods (if that is what one should call it!) as a hobby? I am very ingrigued ..
30 dislikes? Maybe they need to find a world where floods never happen. As for me, I'm glad folks like rankinstudio catch these amazing events of nature, for us to see.
Depends on the amount of rainfall. They can run from 4 - 12 hours long. Sometimes longer. The water sheds are massive and the drainage systems are very long. They can travel 50 + miles.
Quite remarkable footage; gives you an idea of the relentless power of flowing water and mud. Did you see film of the massive flash flooding in Towoomba (Queensland) earlier this year? This was described as an "inland Tsumani". An entire small town downstream was erased from the face of the Earth in the blink of an eye. Some of the dead have still not been located. Nature can be ferocious.
How in the world do you get ahead of these floods? Pretty amazing. Also, in the second flood the water looks almost like marshmallow fluff. What caused that? Thank you for the incredible footage.
In the very beginning as the water is coming down, how tall would you say the water is at that point? It looks like its somewhat deceiving from where you are standing... I have a feeling its quite high.
Pity you weren't in West Minot, ME in August 2008. We had a storm that dumped over five inches in less than an hour when we'd already had a ridiculously rainy summer. A stream that was barely ankle-deep was moving one-ton boulders, took out a bridge, and nearly took out the culvert downstream. Another, even smaller stream almost took out a second bridge; it flowed into the brook and cut back at least a six foot by ten foot section of bank. And as far as I know, nobody filmed it.
the force of that water would be epic with thousnds of tons pushing from behind most drownings occur when people think flash floods are harmless then get caught in a powerful current trying to cross or swim in the deep ones are a worry but any flash flood can be unpredictable
A flood can happen over the course of hours, days, and even thousands of years. They can be tides, or shifts int he amount of water held in ice caps. A "flash" flood usually shows up within minutes. Takes you by surprise.
@rankinstudio Especially nasty if you camp in a riverbed. Happens a lot here in Oz. The rain can be off, beyond the horizon, and the flood will still follow the course of the riverbed and take out a camp site.
nice. nature is beautiful when it is not deadly. it can also be beautiful when it is deadly. i like how you risk getting swamped to get a few last seconds of video in. they were definitely worth it! also i have never seen flood waters that white foamy color before. any idea what is causing that?
@eeoy this is what is called a debris flow. there is so much sediment in the water that it no longer behaves like water, more like concrete, which explains the relatively low speed at which it moves. these flows can float large boulders and cars because the fluid is so dense. they occur in areas with steep terrain and a dry surface which is easily erodible, and are therefore often seen in areas recently affected by wildfire. search debris flow to see more, they can be very energetic and scary
This is really amazing footage you got here rankin, you were very brave to stand so near the dangerous flood. Thank you for showing it for all to see and enjoy. Watching this reminded me inmediately of the japanese tsunami of march 11, 2011, in both instances i felt like the flood was alive, eating and swallowing everything, like a hughe liquid hungry worm with its own will and determination to digest and mash all things in its path. A strange worm with inmense strength but short lived.lol.
That would be cool for making miniture scale films!!!!! Is that how 20th century made DAY AFTER TOMMOROW? did they use this then put a minutes New York for the tsunami part?
Wow great footage and example of an unstoppable force from mother nature. Hear those rocks tumbling and grinding like a million tons of concrete being poured out !!
seen a great flash flood back in the seventies in the de grey river in the north west of west australia,was an amazing site ,river was about 30 metres wide at the point where i seen it,came as result of a cyclone that dumped heap of rain far inland,there were dead sheep trees and cows floating in the Tzunami of a wave in front,that were probably in the riverbed when caught by the flood, wish I'd had a video camera then....
@vncnzo Naw, the water is carrying a lot of sediment. This is part of the Colorado River drainage system. Before the built a bunch of dams on the Colorado, the water was very muddy all year.
scary stuff. this just happened here where I live, in Australia. you want to be glad you're still alive to tell the tale mate. anything could have happened.
Excellent footage. It's a shame that these discussion boards, whenever dealing with a phenomenon even remotely in the sphere of science, always bring out the religious nuts. Overcompensating, perhaps? Regardless, this is wonderful footage of a mild flash flood that is common to the American Southwest, although rarely so nicely captured on video. I'm afraid it's not a sign of the apocalypse that some seem to be hoping for, but, in fact, is an extremely common event in geologic time.
This are all the sign of judgementday(qayamat). it is coming very soon. it says in quran that before judgementday is coming we will face a lot of natural disaster like floods, earth quacqe,Gay and lesbian,fighting each other,there is no peace on anywhere.May allah bless all of us.
At least that's what I always believed. I think I'm going to remain skeptical until the very end. The only way I'm going to believe that the world is ending is when it actually ends.
@soledejay2000 I find it so hard to believe people still think floods earth quakes are caused by god or gods please read some books on science or thor will lightning bolt your arse.
Thanks for the great footage!! Probably wont catch something like this in city life.. All the angles were nice and took alot of effort to keep getting ahead of that..
Hey mate if you over here in australia you sure do check out toomooba floods, it was a in land tsunami from a river way bigger flash flood than this over 60,000 cars were taken in the flood 150000+ flooded amazing footage on youtube i sugest you check it out all of yous

LOL I know, right?
At least that's what I always believed. I think I'm going to remain skeptical until the very end. The only way I'm going to believe that the world is ending is when it actually ends.
