After being inundated for two days, Dubai is now clearing its waterlogged roads and drying out flooded homes. The Dubai International Airport is also struggling to clear a backlog of flights while many roads remain flooded in the aftermath of the April 16 deluge. The United Arab Emirates (UAE) was inundated with water after storms dumped more than a year and a half’s rain in just a few hours. The rains were the heaviest experienced by the United Arab Emirates in the 75 years that records have been kept. The calamity is unprecedented as rains are rare in the UAE and elsewhere on the Arabian Peninsula, typically known for its dry desert climate.

    Weather modification inc is a company in the US where cloud seeding is common, videos from news sources explained cloud seeding months ago in Modesto California. Climate change is about money, when they've been telling us that they have been using technology to modify the weather since the 1940's, it was used during Vietnam under project Popeye.

    You play God with weather manipulation and this is the resault! It is happening in other countries too!

    Same statement as how Cop28 president, UAE’s Sultan Al Jaber said: "There is ‘no science’ indicating that a phase-out of fossil fuels is needed to restrict climate change."

    We cannot blame the govt..its a country in a desert. Its infrastructure would be as per that condition. I wish if they were able to utilize this abundance of water to irrigate the barren land.

    Although our hearts go out to all those affected, this is another demonstration that there is an unseen superpower above us that will trigger on its own schedule. We will pray to that power for quick relief to all those who are suffering from this deluge.

    Mother Nature is STILL in control men! Her wisdom is deeper than your pockets, timing is beyond calculations, and fury stronger than the diamonds encased in the crowns of Kings and Princes!

    An Emirati telling the truth is like finding a chicken with a full mouth of teeth! They contradict themselves quite a bit no? Because there were others saying there was cloudseeding

    God the creator of the universe, the alpha and the omega, is powerful. God's wrath is seen throughout history time and time again. We sin unknowingly or knowling. We must repent. We must humble ourselves. God bless everyone. I love you God.
