[Face81]

It was pretty top secret.... not sure why they do not want to share that info as it is something that would make the public excited. Imagine promising rain the heat of the summer months?! Wow!

Anything that is artificial and goes against mother nature cannot be good for our environment. Who knows what side effects there will be using silver oxide or whatever they use to make artificial clouds. You would have thought the government would have made an announcement prior to this experiment, just so the population knew what was going on when the heavens opened up so unexpectedly during the summer months?

It is not unusual to see rain in July.......

[AltinD]

Maybe in Al Ain influenced by early moonsoons, but NOT in Dubai.

[Face81]

For those in Dubai long enough to remember, there were several years in the 1980's and 1990's when the monsoon was strong enough to cause rain in July in Dubai.

If I remember correctly, 1996 was the wettest July on record with about a week of rain in Dubai.

Rough seas, dusty weather predicted

Police in Dubai and Abu Dhabi urge caution on roads due to low visibility caused by dusty winds

By Aftab Kazmi, Bureau Chief
Published: 17:03 October 29, 2012



Police in Dubai and Abu Dhabi urged caution on roads due to low visibility caused by dusty winds.

Abu Dhabi police has issued a warning for motorists to drive carefully as the western UAE coastline has come under the influence of a bad weather system.

Strong winds, poor visibility, and thunderstorms and rain in some areas have been created tougher driving conditions. Air traffic has also been affected out of Abu Dhabi airport.

The National Centre for Meteorology and Seismology has put out a rough sea warning and asked people to be cautious when going out into sea.

Cumulus clouds, thunderstorms and lightning will cause severe disturbance at sea, a statement from NCMS said.

Motorists driving along valleys should take extra caution as landslides, strong winds and low visibility are forecast.

Given the forecasts in recent days... If Shakespeare was alive and living in Dubai, he would be asking the question: To rain or not to rain?
