In an avalanche a small amount of snow or mud on a mountain or hill starts moving downhill. As it moves, more snow or mud joins it. As it slides along, it starts knocking over items in its path and burying them. Sometimes those objects are humans. If it is snow and the people are not rescued soon enough, they die.
In California, a number of people do not like all the plants on the hill sides so they remove them. When a strong rain comes, it turns the hillside to mud. An avalanche comes. Mud covers the houses below. If it takes enough land away from the top of the hill, a house up there is likely to lose its foundation and start falling over the hill. While inclement weather in California provides the immediate cause of the avalanches of mud, people clearing land of trees and brushes is the real reason they happen.

The safest place in a house during an avalanche is in the reinforced interior section, away from windows and exterior walls. A basement or lower floor is often a safer location during an avalanche. It's important to have an emergency plan in place and to follow local authorities' guidelines for safety during avalanches.
Some songs with the word "avalanche" in the title include "Avalanche" by Leonard Cohen, "Avalanche" by Bring Me The Horizon, and "Avalanche" by Nick Jonas.

An avalanche demonstrates potential energy converting into kinetic energy. Heat energy is not directly related to an avalanche but may be generated due to friction as the snow particles rub against each other during the avalanche.
In the 2013-2014 season, The Colorado Avalanche played the Arizona Coyotes on February 28, 2014. The Avalanche won the game by a score of 4-2.

During an avalanche, one should try to move to the side to get out of the path of the snow, grab onto something sturdy if possible, and try to stay on the surface by swimming or rolling. Carry avalanche safety gear like a beacon, shovel, and probe, and always travel with a partner.
