The Multispectral Instrument on the European Space Agency's Sentinel-2 satellite acquired the image below on August 22, 2018, after flood water had inundated the area. The images are false-color, which makes flood water appear dark blue. Vegetation is bright green, Nasa said in its post.
Several rivers throughout the region spilled over their banks. Water from the Karuvannur River ran through 40 villages, and washed away a 2.2 kilometer (1.4 mile) stretch of land connecting two national highways. Elevated water levels along the Periyar River displaced thousands of people.
The Kochi airport remains closed due flooding inside the airport. Water levels in reservoirs and precipitation have subsided, and the Indian Meteorological Department has withdrawn the Red Alert from all 14 districts.
Kerala is reeling from - what is being called - its worst flood of the century displacing nearly a million people, caused hundreds of fatalities, and washed away homes. The region started receiving heavy rain on August 8, 2018.
