Njengoko abasemagunyeni baseTennessee beqhubeka nokukhangela umfundi weYunivesithi yaseMissouri olahlekileyo uRiley Strain, uMlambo iCumberland uye waba yindawo ephambili kule ngxaki iqhubekayo.
Kodwa, ngaba uMlambo iCumberland uyingozi ngokwenene?
I-Ofisi yoLawulo lweeNgxamiseko iqalise iinqanawa emlanjeni kabini njengenxalenye yokukhangela iStrain, 22, kunye neSebe lamapolisa laseMetro Nashville. Lo mfundi waseyunivesithi ubonwe okokugqibela ngoLwesihlanu ehamba kufutshane neGay Street kunye ne-1st Avenue, ngokutsho kwesithethi seSebe loMlilo laseNashville uKendra Loney.
Abahlobo bakhe bamxele ukuba ulahlekile ngosuku olulandelayo.
ULoney uthe indawo apho uStrain agqityelwe ukubonwa khona yayikwindawo enamatye anqabileyo awayenokwenza kube nzima ukuba umfundi olahlekileyo awele emlanjeni, kodwa uphendlo olungazange luphumelele lwezikhephe ngoLwesibini nangoLwesithathu luveze iinkxalabo ezinzulu malunga nokhuseleko lomlambo, ngokwawo, iinkxalabo omnye umnini-shishini waseNashville angenakuzinceda ngaphandle kokuziphakamisa.
UMlambo iCumberland ujikeleza iimayile ezingama-688, unqumla indlela enqumla emazantsi eKentucky naseMiddle Tennessee ngaphambi kokuba udibane noMlambo iOhio. Udlula kwizixeko ezibini ezinkulu: iClarksville neNashville. Kukho amadama asibhozo ecaleni komlambo, kwaye iTennessee Wildlife Resource Agency iphawula ukuba idla ngokusetyenziswa ziinqanawa ezinkulu zokuthutha impahla.
UKapteni we-Arhente yeZibonelelo zeZilwanyana zasendle eTennessee uJosh Landrum uthe uMlambo iCumberland uneengozi ezininzi ebantwini, ingakumbi ebusuku nakwiindawo ezibandayo.
“Iinqanawa ezingaphantsi komhlaba zingabakho nanini na xa kukho umoya kunye nemisinga enamandla kwiinkqubo zemilambo. Nangona kunjalo, ngokuqhelekileyo phakathi kwesixeko, umlambo umxinwa, kwaye umsinga womlambo uyingozi enkulu. Umsinga womlambo onamandla wodwa unokubangela nokuba umntu odadayo abe nobunzima bokubuyela elunxwemeni ukuba angawela,” utshilo uLandrum.
Umphathi wemisebenzi yeCumberland Kayak & Adventure Company uDylan Schultz uthe kukho izinto ezahlukeneyo ezinokubangela ingozi engakumbi kwabo bahamba ngomlambo.
Phakathi kwezo ngxaki kukho indlela amanzi ahamba ngayo ngesantya esiphezulu.
Isantya samanzi nge-8 kaMatshi, xa i-Strain yabonwa okokugqibela, yalinganiswa nge-3.81 feet ngomzuzwana, ngokutsho kwedatha ye-United States Geological Survey (USGS). Isantya safikelela kwi-10:30 am nge-9 kaMatshi, xa salinganiswa nge-4.0 feet ngomzuzwana.
“Imihla ngemihla, umsinga uyatshintshatshintsha,” utshilo uSchultz. Inkampani yakhe isebenza kumgama weemayile ezintathu zeCumberland phakathi kweShelby Park kunye nommandla wedolophu. “Ayiqhelekanga ukuba kwinqanaba apho ikhawuleza khona, kodwa kuya kuba nzima ukudada ngokuchasene nomsinga.”
USchultz waphawula ukuba abo banomdla, umsinga weCumberland uhamba ngasentshona nakumntla-ntshona udlula eNashville.
I-National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration ichaza imisinga ekhawulezayo njengeyo enesantya esifikelela kwiimitha ezi-8 ngomzuzwana.
Iinqanawa zimiswa kwi-East Bank yoMlambo iCumberland zijonge eDowntown Nashville, eTenn. ngoLwesibini, nge-11 ka-Okthobha, ngo-2022.
Kodwa isantya samanzi asikokuphela kwento ekufuneka iqwalaselwe emlanjeni. Ubunzulu bubalulekile.
Ngomhla wesi-8 kweyoKwindla, i-USGS ibike ukuba umlambo ubuziinyawo ezingama-24.66 ubunzulu ngentsimbi ye-10 ebusuku. Ukususela ngoko utshintshile, amanzi enyuke aya kwiinyawo ezingama-20.71 ukusukela ngentsimbi yoku-1:30 emva kwemini ngoLwesithathu, itsho i-USGS.
Nangona kunjalo, uSchultz uthe uninzi loMlambo iCumberland alunzulu ngokwaneleyo ukuba ungama kulo. Uqikelela ukuba umntu oqhelekileyo unokuma kulo mlambo naphi na phakathi kweenyawo ezili-10-15 ukusuka elunxwemeni.
Kodwa, lumka, 'iyawa ngokukhawuleza,' walumkisa.
Mhlawumbi owona mceli mngeni mkhulu umntu anokujongana nawo emlanjeni, ingakumbi ebusuku, uvela kwiinqanawa zothutho ezidada ecaleni kweCumberland kunye namaqondo obushushu aphantsi omoya.
Amagosa athi ngomhla wesi-8 kweyoKwindla, amaqondo obushushu ayephantsi ukuya kuma-56 degrees. ULandrum ubonise ukuba amaqondo obushushu amanzi ebeya kuba kuma-50 degrees, nto leyo eyenza ukuba i-hypothermia ibe yinto enokwenzeka, ingakumbi ukuba umntu akanakukwazi ukuphuma emanzini ngokukhawuleza.
URiley Strain, oneminyaka engama-22 ubudala, wagqityelwa ukubonwa ngabahlobo bakhe kwibhari yaseBroadway ngoLwesihlanu, umhla wesi-8 kweyoKwindla, ngo-2024 ngelixa wayetyelele eNashville evela kwiYunivesithi yaseMissouri, batsho abasemagunyeni. Okwangoku, uphando oluqhutywe eCumberland aluphumelelanga njengoko amagosa asekuhlaleni eqhubeka nokukhangela umfundi olahlekileyo. UStrain ubude bakhe buyi-6'5″, unomzimba omncinci, amehlo aluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka kunye neenwele ezimdaka ezikhanyayo. Wayephumile neqela labazalwana baseDelta Chi ngoLwesihlanu ebusuku xa wagxothwa kwibhari kaLuke Bryan malunga nentsimbi ye-10 ebusuku. Akakaze abonwe okanye eve nto ukususela ngoko.
