message: Shouldn't the cloud burst at Pike's Peak CO be mentioned? 120 individuals were killed so that would seem quite notable  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.118.104.68 (talk) 01:41, 16 June 2013 (UTC)

replies: text:  There were approximately 600 people who are still missing from the deluge. Now, 12 days later, can we say that these are dead? there seems to be no official confirmation of the numbers found out of these missing persons.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.176.202.234 (talk) 21:02, 17 August 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  "Leh Cloudburst" 

message: I wonder if Wiki should keep this article as it is. Cloud burst as a phenomena has never been scientifically proven and hence it is hard to find any reliable peer reviewed publications regarding it. Concentrated rainfall is usuall in mountainious areas, but they dont occur because the cloud itself burst and sink down to the levels of earth's surface!

thread_title: A very ambiguious term

message: The information given mostly in the section "India" lack the amount of rain, how much rain fall ??? in how many hours ???. The section totally ignores the quantity of rain. It sounds that cloud burst isn't relate to rainfall at all in this section !!!
e.g: 20 people died of cloud burst !!!  Do cloud burst is a bomb blast or something else ??? it should be: 200 mm of torrential rain lashed the city, that killed 20 people. This information is more precise than the former. Please provide the amount of rainfall recorded.

thread_title:  Facts and Figures ! 

message: The article states, "A cloudburst can suddenly dump 72,300 tons of water over one acre."
Aside from the fact that this is a rather precise amount, it is unbelievable.
An acre is 43,560 square feet. 72,300 tons of water in this area would be 1.66 tons per square foot. This would be a column of water over 53 feet tall. 
Am I missing something here? ghh 13:12, 2 June 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  Facts need checking 

message: There has been a cloudburst in Pakistan a few hours ago. There are flood conditions and about 22 people are feared dead. I don't have the stats on duration or the amount of water so perhaps someone could add it in when stats become available?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 116.0.54.66 (talk) 08:04, 15 July 2019 (UTC)
thread_title:  Cloud burst in Pakistan 2019 

message: The article gives approximate figures for the amount of rain that can fall in a cloudburst, and for the duration. But there's nothing about the extent, that area over which the cloudburst drops rain.  One square km?  One hundred square kms? It would be useful if the article gave some rough idea.
