Artificial Rain in Dubai



CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS?

It was an artificial rain !!

Done by the meteorological department at the national centre of meteorology and seismology (NCMS)

To remove the air pollution on Dubai's atmosphere..

It is called 'cloud seeding' a latest technology to customise weather..

Cloud seeding, a form of weather modification, is the attempt to change the amount or type of precipitation that falls from clouds, by dispersing substances into the air that serve as cloud condensation or ice nuclei. The usual intent is to increase precipitation, but hail suppression is also widely practiced. Silver iodide and dry ice are the most commonly used substances in cloud seeding technology

An aircraft is putting dry ice on clouds which makes artificial rain

More rains are expected on these summer days...

Happy chilling out Dubai'ians!
