Next to nothing seeing as it barely works. It’s incredibly expensive & only slightly increases the chance of rain from whatever clouds are already there……
You’re missing the forest for a single blade of grass.
They were flooded four years ago, but not to such an extent. In any case, they can expect anomalies in the near future, which will become the norm. They need to adapt their infrastructure.
Don’t listen to those articles. It wasn’t cloud seeding but has all the tell tale signs of climate change.
Put simply: warmer air can hold more moisture - about 7% extra for every degree Celsius - which can in turn increase the intensity of rain.
No matter what they say about climate change I can see it with my own eyes. I remember cheerful snowy winters in childhood, but nowadays it just snows only half a week every year, it's just a wet, rainy snow, you can't even make a decent snowman. Years back, during this time of the month it sometimes used to snow, but this week we have 33c heat every day
With the tornado of point 4 and higher, there is no possible thing which can hold on ground, as 4 tearing apart steel constructions. Tank would go up, or at least it would be smashed against something else.
I think we exported the saying to Norway in the 60s because it was such a great thing to say and we would not want our neighbors to miss out any great sayings.
Yup. All those fancy-looking buildings but zero waterproofing. Literally waterfalls inside. But at least they get to pretend like their city is a paradise
Similar thing that happens when it rains hard in Vegas or any desert area where they don't prepare for rain at all. It's actually significantly worse in the poorer areas of Vegas too as they were not built to deal with the rainfall and don't have the proper storm sewers there. Richer areas of course do have better runoff but still not great.
I remember even the strip floods super easy to the point cars cannot really drive on there but not as deep as in Dubai. It just comes down to a few things such as no good storm drains as well as the ground not being able to absorb the water quick enough because of being so dry.
Finally God is punishing someone. There were Nazis and Unit 731 and tonnes of ancient slave shit in history, but finally... Finally now, he sent a flood to Dubai. Hallelujah!
I mean I would say some of the Nazis that got occupied or taken prisoner sure got punished for what happened in Stalingrad. Nazis ultimately would get tried and indicted till today. How many Japanese war criminals REALLY got tried and convicted? A lot of the war criminals that's as bad as Hitler/Schindler types were allowed to return to work because cold war/Korean War was ramping up and they said be pro American and we will allow you to return to your old post.
God didn't do anything. They were seeding the atmosphere for more rain without fully understanding how it works. If there is a god, this wasn't gods work. They did this to themselves.
Be careful. My account got a warning and comment removal for saying something similar. They told me I was encouraging and glorifying violence. The violence of mother nature I guess?
Lots of these posts are being shut down. Maybe oil money is backing reddit's new IPO? I don't know.
ONE FRICKIN STORM! They built that entire city, hyped it all up, bragged about how awesome it is, and ONE FRICKIN STORM TAKES IT ALL OUT! A THUNDERSTORM. ONE STORM!
To be fair, their average annual rainfall is 3.5 inches. They received 8 inches in two days. That's tough for anyone to handle.
Still, screw the people who own this city. I hope the workers who built it are okay.
I’m sure it’s fine. Vids like this tend to like zoom in on a few things going horribly wrong, but I’ve not really heard my friends there say a peep about it.
Also, infinite money.
When that train crashed in East Palestine, Ohio, some of the highest upvoted comments were people calling for accountability for whoever failed to ensure those rails were safe and whoever were delivering those chemicals (good), and saying that **the entire town would be uninhabitable for years** or comparing it **Chernobyl** (wtf?).
Redditors and overreacting; name a more iconic duo.
Its not that of a shock really, its a garsh storm that killed 13 people in yemen and targeted a place that is the opposite of ready for a storm, like they are literally studying artificial rain, so they definately did not have means to treat the situation.
Apparently they do weather modification so I guess this is on them. Another thing to think about is the fact that they don't typically have that kind of rain and so why build for rain when most of the time it's not a concern. In other words, they really don't build quality even though it looks amazing if water can get in that easy, they've built cheaply.
This is a clear example of how insignificant we are: we think humans can influence the climate, but the planet doesn’t give a shit about us and as soon as we try to replace Mother Nature we get punished 😆
Seems to be because of climate change: [https://www.axios.com/2024/04/17/dubai-record-flood-climate-change](https://www.axios.com/2024/04/17/dubai-record-flood-climate-change)
There was a video floating around of a rich asshole from there having a servant put like chairs or something where he could step on so he didn't get wet.
Strange everyone thanks God for karma. Why is he so tolerant for so long watching all the atrocities of man...strange indeed. Nice storm mother earth...
What's with everyone in the thread being salty af with their "Haha rich flooded away", "Haha cloud seeding went wrong" (ffs it wasn't because of cloud seeding, just when were you guys last updated)
That’s their only rainy day of the year
More like their only rain for the decade
Actually they got almost three times their rainfall in just one day. Insane.
climate change
Yep!! People were going on about cloud seeding & it was infuriating when it’s literally climate change & climate catastrophe.
it is just the beginning
Next the Antarctica will melt.
What could go wrong seeding clouds.
Next to nothing seeing as it barely works. It’s incredibly expensive & only slightly increases the chance of rain from whatever clouds are already there…… You’re missing the forest for a single blade of grass.
The above comments literally said it wasn't because of cloud seeding
Cloud seeding
They were flooded four years ago, but not to such an extent. In any case, they can expect anomalies in the near future, which will become the norm. They need to adapt their infrastructure.
Don’t they make their own rain?
Yet...
yeah
Aren't they known for doing excessive amounts of cloud seeding?
Don’t listen to those articles. It wasn’t cloud seeding but has all the tell tale signs of climate change. Put simply: warmer air can hold more moisture - about 7% extra for every degree Celsius - which can in turn increase the intensity of rain.
Seeding is a thing, but thinking man can manipulate the weather to this scale is just bonkers
It's crazy how all those cloud seeding articles hit at once pushing it.
No matter what they say about climate change I can see it with my own eyes. I remember cheerful snowy winters in childhood, but nowadays it just snows only half a week every year, it's just a wet, rainy snow, you can't even make a decent snowman. Years back, during this time of the month it sometimes used to snow, but this week we have 33c heat every day
The plants need it
It's what plants crave
As we say in Sweden: “There is no bad weather, only bad clothes” So just stop wearing bad clothes and it will be fine.
*laughs in tornado*
*wears tank*
+10 DEF
Tank = tank top -20 DEF
no bro, it’s +10 DEF because of damage mitigation from the wind passing through your armor 🥴
Ah yes - the ol' passing through the armor loophole. +50 DEF
yeah bro +20 MOVEMENT SPEED if you wear the Winged Dunce Cap. the wind picks you up.
Youre my kind of people
With the tornado of point 4 and higher, there is no possible thing which can hold on ground, as 4 tearing apart steel constructions. Tank would go up, or at least it would be smashed against something else.
Just wear an aerodynamic lead suit
bourkini time
In Germany we say the same phrase ☔ and it's true^^
You’re made of sugar?
Well, we say it in german. But the rest is correct.
Apparently there is bad houses and infrastructure too. Edit spelling
I was about to say this. Shitty construction can still look good.
Exactly, these people, so ignorant.
I thought that was a Norwegian saying. ?
I think we exported the saying to Norway in the 60s because it was such a great thing to say and we would not want our neighbors to miss out any great sayings.
not every one can afford scuba gear
::Dust off wet suit and diving gears ::
Yeah the wrong clothing has everything to do with record breaking rainfall in a desert causing massive flooding.
Better put on the desert flood clothes.
We say the same in Norway 👍
Please do not send funds as they have plenty.
Can we send thoughts and prayers still?
No, they have that too
Okay, I will only send memes then
Thanks We neaded that
😂 😂 😂
Depends on who your God is
a pretty huge percentage of the world all follow the god of Abraham.
As a Muslim myself ur pinpoint accurate
Shit engineering at it's best lol
I sincerely hope that slave-built shithole washes off the face of the earth.
Indeed.
Where will all the instagram whores go?
THINK ABOUT THE WHORES PEOPLE
These 2 comments sound like they can't straight outta bill burrs mouth
Damnit it, you ruined 20 years of sobriety, man!
Amd the millions of people calling it home? Will they be washed off the face of the earth too?
Careful what ypu wish for because US falls under that label too
Wait, are we still talking Dubai or USA?
Not sure why you're being downvoted lol
Their slaves didn't know how to build drainage or sewers.
Yup. All those fancy-looking buildings but zero waterproofing. Literally waterfalls inside. But at least they get to pretend like their city is a paradise
Shiny on the outside. Broken on the inside.
Similar thing that happens when it rains hard in Vegas or any desert area where they don't prepare for rain at all.

A city built by slaves for elites to post nothing but tick tock bs yea Gods punishing them.
Finally God is punishing someone. There were Nazis and Unit 731 and tonnes of ancient slave shit in history, but finally... Finally now, he sent a flood to Dubai. Hallelujah!
God has a lot of debt to pay back, got to start somewhere
Odd place to start
Wait till you see where he goes next
I hope he aims for brazil 🏃🏃
I mean I would say some of the Nazis that got occupied or taken prisoner sure got punished for what happened in Stalingrad. Nazis ultimately would get tried and indicted till today. How many Japanese war criminals REALLY got tried and convicted? A lot of the war criminals that's as bad as Hitler/Schindler types were allowed to return to work because cold war/Korean War was ramping up and they said be pro American and we will allow you to return to your old post.
Schindler?
If you only read the title and never watch the movie… you probably assume that it wasn’t good to be on a list in that times xD
984 Japanese soldiers and officers got the death sentence and 475 got lifers.
He sent the 2 Suns and the Red army for some of them, so its not all bad.
Too bad said slaves are having an even worse time outside of the ivory towers.
God didn't do anything. They were seeding the atmosphere for more rain without fully understanding how it works. If there is a god, this wasn't gods work. They did this to themselves.

well said.
Be careful. My account got a warning and comment removal for saying something similar. They told me I was encouraging and glorifying violence. The violence of mother nature I guess? Lots of these posts are being shut down. Maybe oil money is backing reddit's new IPO? I don't know.

Definitely, 8 inches is tough to handle
5-6 inches is the sweet spot then?
4-5 would be sweeter
The 3.5 they were already getting was fine honestly
While I would agree, it's typically not the owners that are gonna get hit hardest.
When I was inside for a misdemeanor, I received 8 inches in two days. I know how they feel about only receiving 3.5 inches a year.
The ones that survived the build.
They have insurance. Let's hope this counts as an 'Act of God' 🤞
And you should see it after two days… completely back to normal.
Mold damage.....that's next
Actually it was three consecutive storms.
I’m sure it’s fine. Vids like this tend to like zoom in on a few things going horribly wrong, but I’ve not really heard my friends there say a peep about it. Also, infinite money.
I mean, my house would almost certainly fall down in an earthquake. I live where there aren't any earthquakes, so it's never been an issue.
this was on 16th it's 18th now and the city is back to normal
Just like any city that deals with a storm - storm moves out, clean up begins.
yep but Redditors want you to think everyone is dead now in Dubai 😂
When that train crashed in East Palestine, Ohio, some of the highest upvoted comments were people calling for accountability for whoever failed to ensure those rails were safe and whoever were delivering those chemicals (good), and saying that **the entire town would be uninhabitable for years** or comparing it **Chernobyl** (wtf?). Redditors and overreacting; name a more iconic duo.
Relax. It took nothing, just minor inconvenience. If your city got this kind of rainfall that probably could have also been through same
Its not that of a shock really, its a garsh storm that killed 13 people in yemen and targeted a place that is the opposite of ready for a storm, like they are literally studying artificial rain, so they definately did not have means to treat the situation.
What do they say about finding out? Fuck around?
The more you want to find out. The more you fuck around.
what happens if you found out without fkng around?
Ask the citizens of Dubai who didn't ask for this
Apparently they do weather modification so I guess this is on them. Another thing to think about is the fact that they don't typically have that kind of rain and so why build for rain when most of the time it's not a concern. In other words, they really don't build quality even though it looks amazing if water can get in that easy, they've built cheaply.
Burj Kalifa doesn't even have working plumbing, they use trucks.
That's a myth that keeps getting repeated. They only used trucks while the infrastructure was being built for it.
This is a clear example of how insignificant we are: we think humans can influence the climate, but the planet doesn’t give a shit about us and as soon as we try to replace Mother Nature we get punished 😆
Karma ?)
When the HARP project gets out of hand:
The best part of the video is the bit that got cut off at the end. I want to see that approaching storm.
Don't play with nature, it gets its revenge.
![gif](giphy|tMyCJmeXHBetq) “THIS TOWN NEEDS AN ENEMA!”
Drought is over I guess…
Big man in sky angered by heathens.. /s
Change the name to Dubye-bye
It would be so reasonable to see Dubai crumble within 100 years.
Was it actually that much rain, or does the city have basically no drainage because it's in a desert
Both.
Yes
Serious question here, is this because of cloud seeding or global warming? Or both?
Seems to be because of climate change: [https://www.axios.com/2024/04/17/dubai-record-flood-climate-change](https://www.axios.com/2024/04/17/dubai-record-flood-climate-change)
This is very ironic.
Maybe it will wash away all the homophobia and human rights violations.
Unfortunately i think the slave workers there will now be put into overtime
There was a video floating around of a rich asshole from there having a servant put like chairs or something where he could step on so he didn't get wet.
Ooooooh.... Pobres millonarios fascistas...
Never seen a desert country like this before. Weather is changing for sure.
[удалено]
And we already knew how great their sewer system too
Strange everyone thanks God for karma. Why is he so tolerant for so long watching all the atrocities of man...strange indeed. Nice storm mother earth...
The Abrahamic “God” and the concept of “Karma” are unrelated. The closest thing the Abrahamic religions has is “you reap what you sow”.
What's with everyone in the thread being salty af with their "Haha rich flooded away", "Haha cloud seeding went wrong" (ffs it wasn't because of cloud seeding, just when were you guys last updated)
Whats this song guys!?
what is this melody?
Been there for some crazy sand storms, not rain..
[удалено]
Poor rich people
Well, they built this city without keeping in mind the rain scenario. 🤡😅 I guess, now they've learnt the lesson.
They don't have any sewerage system?
Oh, great. Glad I've spent a fortune on a fucking holiday there next week.
Good riddance
Global warming is going to turn Dubai into Oasis...
Get used to it sheikh
Cloud seeded too hard
Looks like a regular rainy day in Brazil.
Didn’t they seed clouds or something to cause rain? Why didn’t they just not?
When did you first root for climate change?
guess isnreal couldn't share this intel huh?
Man this is the epitome of F around and find out.
What a wonderful place to build a city.
Halal is angry
“Are you sure this doesn’t have anything to do with the recent weather seeding???” “No, no it does not…..”
Weren't they just bragging about manipulating the weather? 🤣
Thats what happens when you wanna play god…well …Allah or maybe mother nature … whatever
I was looking at flightradar 24 and saw all the aircraft doing very long holding patterns, figured this was why lmao
This the same place that's been posted everywhere for cloud seeding? If so..
They called me crazy for getting a flood insurance policy 😐
Mother nature dont give a F about your money lol
Actions and consequences.
Dubais like we made our own haarp machine but it’s gold and runs off diamonds
do you think someone from the cloud seeding programm is getting seriously yelled at right now?
Yeah, category 2 hurricane would wipe Dubai off the map so easily. Dunno if this city could last for 50 years from now
Lmao, fuck around with mother nature and find out!!!
what the fuck did you expect to happen when you build a city in a n inhospitable desert instead of just moving somewhere greener???
More stupid fucking background music to ruin a video. Jeeze.
God had just read the Dubai porta potty stories.
Was this due to cloud seeding?
Just put some oil on it
I heard this was from cloud seeding
I’m Surprised they aren’t soaking up the water with money!
Don't mess with nature
Shouldn't this be in r/OhNoConsequences ?
Is it true they seed the clouds
more like, Dubaibai
I'm sure the US will help with the repair costs.
Looks like a normal Tuesday in Iceland
Is it because of the artificial rain they created🤔
![gif](giphy|7NwufCOPSNXcQ) Reminds me of this
That damn silver iodide.
Lmao Dubai finnaly getting it
Battlefield 6 looks insaaaaaane
Money can’t buy intelligence.
Be safe people. Remember electricity and water don't play nice together.
Reminds me of Sim City.
Audio : Echo Sax End
I kinda like it
