Abstract
Catastrophic floods of the river are described. Kura and its tributaries, which caused enormous damage and casualties. It is noted that the increase in damage is caused by an increase in the frequency of high rains, strong anthropogenic changes in the underlying surface, as well as a decrease in the infiltration capacity of the soil and the water permeability of river channels. Under the conditions of global warming, the expected increase in the intensity of precipitation will cause more frequent catastrophic floods. In order to ensure safety and reduce losses, appropriate preventive measures should be taken.
