outrushes
Rapid exits en masse
Outrushes is the plural of outrush—a sudden, forceful flow outward.
Water outrushes from a broken dam; air outrushes from a punctured tire.
The word captures rapid expulsion: the outrushes of breath between sobs, outrushes of lava from the volcanic vent.
As a verb, outrushes means moves or pours out suddenly: Steam outrushes when the valve opens.
