# Winnipesaukee River

The Winnipesaukee River is a 10.5-mile-long (16.9 km) river that connects Lake Winnipesaukee with the Pemigewasset and Merrimack rivers in Franklin, New Hampshire. The river is in the Lakes Region of central New Hampshire. The river's drainage area is approximately 488 square miles (1,264 km$^2$).
The river has two distinct sections. The upstream section consists of a series of river courses connecting a chain of lakes, beginning with Lake Winnipesaukee. From the dam at the outlet of Lake Winnipesaukee in the Lakeport section of Laconia, the river almost immediately enters Opechee Bay. 1 mile (1.6 km) down the lake, the river exits over a dam and drops through the center of Laconia, its banks lined by industrial buildings from the 19th century that were constructed to take advantage of the river's power. The 1-mile (1.6 km) section through Laconia ends at Lake Winnisquam, the fourth-largest lake in New Hampshire. A 5-mile (8 km) stretch across Winnisquam leads to the dam at the lake's outlet and a short descent to Silver Lake.
The river's lower section begins at the natural outlet of Silver Lake, on the boundary between Belmont and Tilton, New Hampshire. The river passes through the center of the twin towns of Tilton and Northfield, then descends through a narrow valley to Franklin where additional small dams use the river's power. From Tilton to Franklin, the river has a drop of up to 90 feet per mile (17 m/km), with challenging rapids for sport boaters who put in at Cross Mill Bridge and take out at the U.S. Route 3 Sanborn Bridge in downtown Franklin. A USGS water gage is in Tilton.
The Winnipesaukee River joins the Pemigewasset River just downstream from the center of Franklin, forming the Merrimack River.

# Otomezuka Kofun

Otomezuka Kofun (処女塚古墳) is a Kofun period burial mound, located in the Mikagezuka neighborhood of Higashinada-ku, Kobe, Hyōgo Prefecture, in the Kansai region of Japan. The tumulus was designated a National Historic Site of Japan in 1922.

## Overview

The Otomezuka Kofun is a zenpō-kōhō-fun [ja] (前方後方墳), which is shaped like a keyhole, formed by two conjoined rectangles, when viewed from above. It is located on an alluvial fan formed by the Ishiyagawa River, and is one of the several early Kofun period burial mounds distributed on the coastal plain at the southern foot of Mount Rokkō. The total length of the tumulus, which had fukiishi its surface, is estimated to be about 70 meters after the restoration. It is believed to be the oldest burial mound at the southern foot of Mount Rokkō. The 100-meter Nishimotomezuka Kofun (西求女塚古墳) is about 2,000 meters west of this location, and the 80-meter Higashimotomezuka Kofun (東求女塚古墳) is about 1,500 meters to the east. From this positional arrangement, the Otomezuka Kofun has long been connected with the Unai-otomo Legend (菟原処女の伝説), which appears in the Man'yōshū and the Yamato Monogatari, a tragic love story in which a beautiful young maiden is distrait that two equally worthy suitors are fighting for her hand in marriage. Unable to choose between the two, she commits suicide and the two suitors both follow her into death.
Since 1979, the tumulus has been restored and maintained as a historic park. The tumulus is about a three-minute walk from Ishiyagawa Station on the Hanshin Electric Railway Hanshin Main Line.

# 2024 West Bengal floods

The 2024 West Bengal floods occurred in mid-September 2024, primarily affecting the southern regions of the state. The floods were triggered by a combination of heavy rainfall due to a deep depression over the Bay of Bengal and the release of water from dams managed by the Damodar Valley Corporation (DVC). The event led to widespread damage, displacement, and loss of life across several districts of West Bengal.

## Cause

On 13 September 2024, a well-marked low-pressure area formed over the northeast Bay of Bengal and southeast Bangladesh. By the morning of 14 September, it intensified into a depression and moved west-northwestward across coastal Bangladesh and Gangetic West Bengal. By 05:30 hours on the same day, the system strengthened into a deep depression over Bangladesh and Gangetic West Bengal. The system brought continuous heavy rainfall to southern West Bengal. The situation was worsened by the release of over 250,000 cusecs of water from DVC dams, which caused rivers to overflow.

## Affected Areas

The flood impacted six districts: Howrah, Hooghly, Paschim Medinipur, Purba Medinipur, Bankura, Purulia. The worst-affected areas were Ghatal in Paschim Medinipur and Udaynarayanpur in Howrah, where rising water levels and breaches in riverbanks caused massive flooding. The Dwarakeswar River breached its banks, particularly affecting Hooghly.

## Impact

The floods claimed the lives of three people and displaced over 2.5 lakh residents, forcing many to evacuate their homes in search of safety. The inundation severely impacted infrastructure, with roads and transportation routes submerged, making areas like Panskura railway station in Purba Medinipur completely inaccessible. Additionally, the floods devastated agriculture, as vast stretches of crops, particularly in floodplain regions, were washed away, dealing a significant blow to farmers and local economies.

## Relief and Rescue Operations

The West Bengal government, alongside the National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) and the State Disaster Response Force (WB), mobilized efforts to rescue and provide relief to those affected. Over 180 relief camps were set up, housing around 8,000 displaced individuals.
Also from the WBJDF, pausing their ongoing protest, a team of 26 junior doctors from RG Kar Medical College and Hospital and Bankura Sammilani Medical College and others distributed essential supplies like drinking water, food, and medicines in severely affected areas such as Panskura. They also set up medical camps to provide healthcare to flood victims.
