Did cloud seeding cause Dubai flooding? What to know about the science
The United Arab Emirates capital of Dubai remains flooded after a deluge of rain fell earlier in the week.
Several unconfirmed reports suggest cloud seeding could have played a role in the flooding. Cloud seeding is when we infuse clouds with a substance like silver iodide, by spraying particles from a drone or airplane, or projecting them from a cannon.
“(Water will) start condensing or freezing on to that silver iodide particle and then basically build ice up,” explains Rachel Chang, Canada Research Chair in Atmospheric Science. The ice crystals grow rapidly until they’re large enough to fall as snow, or if the temperature is warm enough, they’ll turn to rain.
Cloud seeding became popular in the United States in the 1960s and now, dozens of countries, including Canada, use the method to sometimes fight forest fires or drought, create snow or to limit the size of potentially damaging hail.”
Global's Nathaniel Dove explains the process and whether experts believe it could have played a role in Dubai’s record rainfall.

Funny because they always said cloud seeding was a conspiracy
Not sure who "they" are but cloudseeding hasn't been a conspiracy, chemtrails have been which use the same science but make frogs gay instead of forming water droplets
The same way they said flat earth is a conspiracy
@@obanojoseph6747because it is lol
@@nkydn no, there is firmament covering this flat earth, and there is a massive ocean which is greater than the one on earth above which gives the sky it's blue color
The bigger conspiracy is the eclipse that just happened. But it's too early to say.
Short answer, yes. Long answer of course you can’t mess with Mother Nature.
@@OceanOfStonerswhat Mary are you dpeaking of
every country messes with mother nature all of the time. when we burn fossil fuels we are messing with mother nature.
are we not part of the nature?
They're still denying it when on the verge of damn near drowning. Wow
But I'm a conspiracy theorist...
You want a cookie
Alien lizard people control the oil industry.
Context behind using this conspiracy word , cause everyone using
"Chemtrails" from airlines is a conspiracy theory
yes you probably still are, no one was ever hiding that weather manipulation didn't exist
And they called us all crazy for saying this. lol looks like all the conspiracy theories are turning out to be true…
Sorry for the question but what is the conspiracy? Cloud seeding exist from a long time ago even in México has been used
@ochou333 you are correct about the age, only it happens in most countries, including the USA. The OP was being sarcastic, its not a conspiracy. But go to almost any left-leaning circle and bring up the topic of weather modification, and you will be labeled a conspiracy theorist, mocked and ridiculed. I think a more important point to mention, are that several other "conspiracies" are also proven right by extension, for example, how we have been blowing the whistle for years about manufactured events, such as debilitating droughts. Clearly if a 2 person airplane equipped with a special nozzle and a supply of silver iodine (which is a very cheap and easy to produce compound) then why are there droughts year after year? They complain about them in the media as if nothing ca be done, crops die, farmers loose money, and water usage for citizens are made to be temporarily limited. Sure makes you wonder, if we are lied to about anything else? Personally, it makes me wonder if any leftist on the face of the planet, possesses the conviction to deflate their ego enough to admit they jumped the gun when they arrogantly proclaimed us to be crazy, when it was objectively a display only of their own ignorance and bigotry.
Yes, im confident the lizard people are hiding the true about the flat earth!
@@modera.torrent_ If you deviate from the narrative, you're a conspiracy nutcase. Nevermind the real nutjobs are blaming Jewish space lasers for setting fires in Canada, Australia and Hawaii, blaming Chem trails for turning the frogs gay and alien lizard people control the oil industry. I love that last one. I still giggle over it.
It's not a conspiracy it's been researched in rich countries for decades like Dubai UAE with cities in the desert they use all kinds of ideas for water needs The conspiracy comes when people add the nonsense of chemtrails saying it's chemicals to control humans When it's simply an alteration from contrails( condensation trails) when you look at the background of these type of rants there is zero evidence Condensation trails a natural occurrence from jets at altitude and cloud seeding are two very seperate things
You mean conspiracy theories of cloud seeding
LoL Nice One! Who knows what is REALLY going on in the skies? There could be cloaked ships everywhere on a different frequency.
🎯
Lmao bro it’s not a conspiracy when you can clearly see them seeding the sky with chemtrails that do not go away. Real contrails go away
@@chasefancy3092 There ARE cloaked ships everywhere and they make up new names for the cloud formations sphaped like UFO's. Lol They think we are stupid.
Airlines, most of air traffic, is not cloud seeding
Haha but chemtrailing isnt real.......
They're not. Those are contrails.
@dsab381 Chemtrails were used in Vietnam... Use Google!
@@dsab381 mostly condensation, because in temperature difference, what a nonsense!
@@dsab381right, that last for hours and spread to cover the sky. "Contrails" get a grip.
@@ambidex5383 I don't know what they're "seeding" in Dubai, but here the white cloudy lines that freak some people out are contrails.
Yes it was cloud seeding. Now show us the earth quake gun and explain how harp makes hurricanes.
If you think it was cloud seeding, you flunk science. Again.
Not cloud seeding everything is in the BIBLE... SHOULD READ WHAT IT TELLS US!
@@user-lh9ej3pl1f I’ve read the bible and am a believer. The fact that cloud seeding is real and being done has been admitted too by governments and corporations. This does not mean that the Bible did not tell us of the catastrophes that would come. It’s just that people are responsible for them not God. God love us governments hate us. God tell us the truth. Government and corporations lie. God is good government is evil. There will be floods and the earth will shake and we will cry out to God to save us. What if Satan is manifested in evil men and God in good and the battle between God and Satan takes place inside us and is made real by our deeds. The manipulation of Gods perfect world by evil men sounds like the end times to me. What are your thoughts on that? Do you think we’re in the end times?
They better stop playing with God that’s all I have to say
Funny enough, earthquake guns do exist. When one shoots a cannon, the earth quakes. Hurricanes also exist when you flush a toilet. 😂 But seriously, you are equivocating things that are obviously made to modify weather (cloud seeding is meant to increase precipitation) to your imagination.
Screw with Mother Nature is not a good thing it will come back to haunt you
I thought weather modification was Alex Jones stuff.
Never was "alex jones" stuff, conspiracy. it's a fact that governments around the world have been modifying the weather..
No it isn't. Cloud seeding has been known about for over 20 years.
Glad this is being reported. Cloud seeding has been used for awhile
and it has been affective in the usa. that's why people are able to go vegan without an issue
i have 1 question to ask do we humans need cloud seeding when crops have been growing for millions of years
Can we talk about HAARP now please?
Yes why not 👍
Just trust the science.
You trust science all the time because it works. Eg. your computer.
Safe and effective
@@dsab381what number boostie you on?
@@dsab381lol that’s not what “science” is junior Science is a method used to discover, test and measure things. Saying “your computer works so science” is not using the word science properly and showing your fundamental misunderstanding of what science is and what its function is
@@arkcon714 I didn't say that, and I know what science is, thanks. Computer technology applies science in many ways. It's been vital to developing technology we're using right now. So, this is why I find it ironic when people post about science being useless or untrustworthy.
Is that why BC is always so dark and loomy?
And Alberta

The media confirming cloud seeding as real after all. Another win for conspiracy theorists
“another” add one more to your tally of 5
@@nkydn lmao 5 low balling it, 5 this year maybe
@@koolerpure list all of them apart from watergate which was a nationwide theory not just a conspiracy theory
“Let’s make it rain”. “Yes let’s do it”. It rains. It keeps raining. “So did we prepare for this? Like get better drainage?” Hmmm 🤔
Last time I listened to “news” was wayyyy before the safe and effective
Listening and believing are two different things. Media is a parasite that preys on the gullibility of those who listen AND believe.
After a year of rain on the desert city, Dubai has begun cleaning up as the floods recede. But passengers stranded at Dubai International Airport say they are running out of food. 🇦🇪
Pray for Rain you have to deal with the flood too!
I will pray. They definitely need more rain so they don’t go thirsty.
Cloud seeding will make clouds release their moisture but cloud seeding will not create storm systems of this magnitude.
Trial and error we're dealing with nature here
May not, but when did you ever heard of a desert getting storms like this? Cloud seeding may have trigger this problem.
It not *may it certainly took time but its likely without cloud seeding it would not have been as bad
@@atthespeedoflife2150always. They're just rare
Ya I thought that weather modification was a conspiracy theory. Hummmm.
Cloud seeding, hence chem trails
STOP PLAYING WITH GODS CREATION
Defund CBC Global and ctv
yeah feel like 323BC what they preach as sciance, I bet Herod never heard about Euclid, or Protagoras! CBC means 323 ironically! Why didn't hey try to make rain, when canada was on fires?! They shoud be really questioned what they preach, what is their source, if any, which sciance schools?!
😂😂they artificially created more rain..but can’t figure out if more water made the flooding worse😂😂 these news stations really scared of the government
I swear the rain here in hong kong are because of dubai it's been quite heavy here
this is false propaganda against Dubai.. I am an indian who lived my 5 year of life till 2020 in Dubai and my family still living there... this rain fall was in saudi and okan .. not just dubai.
Do not play with fire. Do not play God. Do not build useless islands.
If you can't even measure whether it works, then it hardly qualifies as an invention
Need this in Ireland
Not cloud seeding like they're trying to cover something up
Wait so couldn't this be used for the fires that happen in California and Australia?
No. Cloud seeding needs pre-existing clouds and moisture to work. It's basically forcing a cloud to rain early
i thought that was a conspircay
Food, air, & water. Everything we need to survive they wanna control.
Yes
Unnatural.
Can they do the exact same thing they did here in New Mexico?
What they do in NM?
@@mindgames50New Mexico is a desert
Wonderful beautiful❤❤❤❤❤🥰
The question is does it help to submerge half your capital city by seeding clouds? Let's think about this real hard
Trust the science
Yes, always trust the science, which is over 80% funded through the governments of the world and we ALL trust the government.
Go solar they said. Its better for the environment they said.
Well they can produce rain now, well done, and I'm let to believe it's used to help the dryer country's, so when are you going to help Africa and other countries who need water?????
Expert took a fat check
Silver iodide raining down on people doesnt sound good.
this was used in vietnam war
Yes it did
Spray enough co2 and the temperature drops significantly
I hope it did. Will show that seeding works. Great guinea pigs!!
They can build cities in the middle of Persian Gulf, but can’t build a simple drainage system?🤦♂️🤷♂️
Ultimately it proves that no human or no technology is superior than THE ALMIGHTY
Yup. He keeps everything right where it needs to be
Cloud seeds for rain - rains excessively - ummm no that wasn’t us that’s the uhhh global warming 👀
HAARP confirmed
Watch the Animatrix short films “The Second Renaissance” parts 1 & 2
🤦🏻♂️so they blame the 3 storms (that they created) converging into 1 🤣🤣 These are weapons of war they are using on the people and have been for over 70 years 🤦🏻♂️
Stop cloud seeding!That's what the news guy should be telling them.
Invented more than 80years ago?!
And this is what you get when you screw around with weather !
So...I haven't received an Indian scam call for a couple days. I was starting to get concerned....but this makes sense.

Well they fcked around and found out
Every single time humans play God something devastating happens, ijs
Floods in a desert…uh ya of course it was cloud seeding
A warning.God is unhappy with the pride of Dubai
The rain is natural why you make artificial... Such as a nonsense thinking???
I guess u cant always just keep throwing money at the problem lol
Climate change
Allah akbar
Yeah. It was totally natural 😂😂😂
So I guess the cloud seeding worked 😂
Clouds REPRESENT the PRESENCE of God. Read the Bible and see for yourself. Just look up the 'word' clouds.
We all know it was cloud seeding.
Wrong and misleading Dubai has not done any cloud seeding
yes it has. They've never denied it.
Climate change in a nutshell
Ding ding ding! I still remember when "the science experts" said we were going into another ice age in the 80s. The government uses "science" and "experts" for propaganda.
A warming atmosphere.
@@DiscipleofHim is that how you say weather manipulation these days ...huh you learn something new everyday
🙀😲😱💧💧👀
ROFL...Why would you use cloud seeding in a simulated world? I think it's better to pray for rain, or better yet, pray for an Avatar who can balance water, earth, fire , and air. Since 1971, what natural disasters has Ontario, Canada gone through? Perhaps this is a coincidence to? Alien Ships are screwing around with your weather. This punishment came from up above.
