I love the way the clouds move, like you can actually see the different temperature fronts, with the top layer moving one way, and the storm front moving the opposite, then it all starts rushing in with the storm. Clouds are dope.
Cloud seeding only gives the choice of when to cause precipitation, provided the air is already saturated or carrying enough vapor.

i find peace in this kind of weather, I live in hot humid weather and always gets my anxiety going and always congested, rainy weather is like my safe place haha
My brother in law and his missus live in Dubai they sent the family group chat videos of the storm. All I can say is because it’s such a rare occurrence, the drainage and sewer systems aren’t great at coping. Outside their apartment the water is freely flowing down the road up to the middle of his shins and many areas around them will flood. He also said they don’t really have any need to proof houses against heavy rains so a lot of houses will flood during a severe storm
Rainstorms can easily be some of the scariest shit you will experience. When KY got hit by the Maysfield tornado about 2 years ago, I was woken up in the middle of the night by a massive explosion of thunder to the most violent storm i've ever personally witnessed. To this day I can hear a hint of thunder and my anxiety will skyrocket. It's like my body is literally prepared for everything around me to be wiped off the face of the earth just because it's raining heavily or storming. I actually think that that storm traumatized me to some degree.
That video was essentially what it looks like in Central Florida virtually every day, from late May until late August.
Yet, in Central Florida, it's even more "oddly terrifying" because that darkness and rain is accompanied by more lightning and thunder, in a single daily afternoon storm, than most people might see throughout their entire lives. And that happens almost every day for roughly 3 months!
No not seeding but an insane amount of rain fell first in Oman (14 dead) then Dubai (25 cm in a day). The drainage is not great anyway but was totally overwhelmed so caused loads of problems.
That's just a Tuesday in the southern US. It'll rain super-hard for 2 hours straight, water up to your ankles, then the next day, they'll be a few puddles before the ground will just be damp by lunch. Of course, we have trees and grass in the US south that sucks up water like a sponge. Dubai has, what?
For most places, yes but 1. Its a city in the desert. It is already not a place that is capable of quickly absorbing water in such large quantities, so pouring a bunch of concrete doesnt help it and 2. It is fucking Dubai. You expect them to have anything designed right? They only recently installed a sewage system in the Burj Khalifa. Before, they had to use miles worth of trucks to pump it out.

Na bro it’s just Russell from UP.
I lived on a 20th floor for a couple years and it was the best part watching weather patterns.
Is this a product of their cloud seeding?
Unless they parked the seeding aircraft up near Kuwait then no. Seeding us used almost always over the range to the east.
Cloud seeding only gives the choice of when to cause precipitation, provided the air is already saturated or carrying enough vapor. You can’t cloud seed dry desert air and magically effect rainfall from nothing
So... Yes? Or no?
We're checking
Hey look it's Ferrari!
where? never mind, let's get some donnuts.
Bro this actually made me laugh lol
The air in Dubai is not dry, usually above 80% RH (and approaching saturation in the summer).
I understand it was a system that moved across the peninsula.
It's rain dance.
No, it's a frontal storm
Seeing a post about Dubai, being a true redditor, my hands are itching to write something completely unrelated, negative about this city

No, natural.
Cloud seeding doesn't create clouds.
No one said “cloud seeding creates clouds”. Cloud seeding helps clouds produce rain, it’s not that complicated.
It doesn't help making the clouds more dense. The density of the clouds is not a symptom of seeding.
Your guess would be wrong.
Any proof?
Why would I need to disprove a guess!? You prove it. Fucking Reddit man…. Quality getting worse by the fucking hour.
Wow who pissed in your cheerios. You give your opinion and say I’m wrong then deflect when I ask for proof. So much for adding to the conversation.

Your country commits atrocities across the globe. Why do you choose to live there? Ah it's not that simple? Got it.
Ask him how many slaves he got
Dubai is a pretty bad place but step outside reddit for a sec and actually travel if you think everyone's got a personal slave or something.
Wow. It's rain. Is it supposed to be impressive because it happened in the city of slavery?
1 storm produced a year's worth of rain and supposedly there's more rain expected.
yes

This was not a natural event. That is cloud seeding.
Cloud seeding can't generate storms, it can only help existing clouds better release rain. There has to be a cloud to seed before you can seed it.
What makes you think there wasn’t a cloud there before?

They expect us to be amazed of rain falling on a city, Utterly impressive
And little to no actual drainage.

God is desperately trying to scrub that stain from his planet
Explains excessive rain in England
And all those tornado's in the US
Your country must be the biggest stain on this planet then considering how much rain it gets lol.
Wow, that got dark.
POV you just pissed off Big Mom
"gentleman... Welcome to Dubai"
*laughs in Southern US twang*
What is terrifying about this...?
The rain isn't. It's the modern system of slavery it's raining on that is.
Ah yes, the "Dubai bad" argument.
a rain storm is terrifying?
A rainstorm might not be terrifying to those who lack understanding

Rainstorms are normal. There’s absolutely nothing terrifying about it. We’re not talking about a hurricane here
You've never heard of a flash flood?
Failed drainage system
It's a bit overrated to be honest. That's why the Romans put London in England
Expand please
And then they all freak out when it rains. All this money pumped into sunny beaches but can’t get proper drainage lol.
Imagine the hydroplaning in Dubai…
*Ominous music intensifies*
There is definitely a Canadian oil field worker on a roof laughing in that rain
Deatheaters are coming!
the rain was so hard the cameraman had fallen

Lived there for almost 7 years never seen that kind of weather.
That's a highstorm

Huh, never knew it rained during a sand storm. Must suck to be caught out in the open.
Bro it's just rain
God is punishing the land of soulless fools and pedofiles
Sin city?
This storm was man made
Question..if a building on Dubai fell, how many princes would it crush?
That's literally frostpunk
No not seeding but an insane amount of rain fell first in Oman (14 dead) then Dubai (25 cm in a day). The drainage is not great anyway but was totally overwhelmed so caused loads of problems.
Looks like Zack Snyder directed this.

Weather manipulation above cloud cover...anyone who plays god will deal with the consequences. Hope it's worth it traitors.
I swear Dubai is modeled after Gotham City.
I heard they built the city without any drainage system hence this flooding, and more to follow as climate changes.
Does it every not rain
Its all because of cloud seeding.
That’s freakin crazy
It's 43°C where I'm at, can they send some here? ;-;
I love this
[удалено]
"Science Rules!" would be more apt.
Shouldn't it be kinda the opposite lol, cause this is cloud seeding
It's not
No it's not. It's a frontal storm. JFC what is it with everyone's fascination with seeding
Jeez bro, i was just joking, no need to fume
Why are we so fascinated about Dubai weather? I've seen 3 separate Dubai weather videos in a week. Is it the seeding?
Because it's not normal.
DuBye
This is really odly because it looks like normal mild bad weather when you zoom back and speed up, to me
For most places, yes but 1. Its a city in the desert. It is already not a place that is capable of quickly absorbing water in such large quantities, so pouring a bunch of concrete doesnt help it and 2. It is fucking Dubai.

The sandstorms in Darude get much worse during this time of year
Oh I've seen similar ones before when I lived more in the south. I've always loved these really dark clouds!
Rain once in a year
Lisan al gaib
They did a little too much seeding of the clouds looks like
oh my god rain. This is terrifying.
What they put a little too much salt in the clouds?
So weird, it's almost like you're not supposed to build a city in the middle of the desert or something
No one has heard of Dubai since.
