outrushing

Gushing rapidly outward

Outrushing describes something rushing outward or flowing forcefully out from a source.

The word typically modifies things that move with sudden force: the outrushing tide, outrushing air from a punctured tire, the outrushing crowd after the concert.

Less commonly, it functions as a noun for the act itself: an outrushing of emotion.
