Dubai Gets Year and a Half's Worth of Rain in Hours A bus stands abandoned in pouring rain as the sky turned green as a storm hit in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, Tuesday, April 16, 2024. (AP Photo/Jon Gambrell) See 12 more photos Heavy thunderstorms lashed the United Arab Emirates on Tuesday, dumping over a year and a half's worth of rain on the desert city-state of Dubai in the span of hours as it flooded out portions of major highways and its international airport, the AP reports. Meanwhile, the death toll in separate heavy flooding in neighboring Oman rose to 18 with others still missing as the sultanate prepared for the storm. The rains began late Monday, soaking the sands and roadways of Dubai with some 20 millimeters (0.79 inches) of rain, according to meteorological data collected at Dubai International Airport. The storms intensified around 9am local Tuesday and continued throughout the day, dumping more rain and hail onto the overwhelmed city.

An average year sees 94.7 millimeters (3.73 inches) of rain at Dubai International Airport, the world's busiest for international travel and a hub for the long-haul carrier Emirates. At the airport, standing water lapped on taxiways as aircraft landed. The airport ended up halting arrivals Tuesday night and passengers struggled to reach terminals through the floodwater covering surrounding roads. Rain is unusual in the UAE, an arid, Arabian Peninsula nation, but occurs periodically during the cooler winter months. Many roads and other areas lack drainage given the lack of regular rainfall, causing flooding. https://www.newser.com/story/349161/dubai-gets-year-and-a-halfs-worth-of-rain-in-hours.html?utm_source=part&utm_medium=uol&utm_campaign=rss_world_login
Their gov publicly began a cloud seeding program this year. Looks like they overshot.
How are chemtrails "not a thing" but cloud seeding is?
The common misconception regarding "chemtrails" is that every white line in the sky is weather manipulation. In fact, most are naturally occurring contrails caused by water vapor coming off the wings.
I imagine the people in that area are most interested in making rain happen, because it is a massive desert, and they have the money to organize such activity. If there was cloudseeding beforehand, then it was an oopsie, because it was too much water - all wasted. Was there some dignitary that was prevented from flying out from Dubai, coincidentally? There was some talk of Bill Burns meeting with the Iranians in UAE (?), pre-strike.
On the other hand, there are occasional storms that do that over there. It only rains once in the two years in Arabia, but then it rains good and hard.
find who's been seeding the clouds and send them the bill for the damages!
I think they've admitted it was the government; cloud seeding is a pretty standard practice for the region, supposedly. I think they just didn't count on it working that well.
Cloud seeding went wrong.
The amount of rain that fell there means another area will be receiving a drought.
C,MON MAN that is strange.
Well, at least in Dubai. They’ll have enough money to fix everything overnight. They don’t send their money to every other country in the planet.
Ok, I’ll say it “Watch the Water” 😂😂😂
Oh, but it's just "climate change," don'tcha know?
They admitted to fucking with the weather through cloud seeding. You reap what you sow.
The heavy rains that caused widespread flooding across the desert nation came after cloud seeding.
The UAE has been carrying out seeding operations since 2002 to address water security issues
The seeding planes have flown seven missions

Moves and Counter moves. HAARP goes both ways.
God in front of the curtain. I’m sure Julie Green had a prophecy about this before or Hank Kunneman.
The same happened last year ....
Gota Fria's do happen.
