"Debunking the Link Between Cloud Seeding and Dubai's Record-Breaking Flooding"

TL;DR Summary
Scientists have stated that the recent floods in Dubai were not caused by cloud seeding, despite speculation. The downpour was attributed to weather patterns predicted by meteorological models, with climate change likely contributing to more frequent and extreme precipitation in the region. The UAE National Center of Meteorology denied conducting cloud-seeding operations during the storm, and experts emphasized that the scale of rainfall exceeded what cloud seeding could produce. Climate scientists highlighted the role of warming global temperatures in producing heavier rainfall, indicating that any focus on cloud seeding in the floods is misleading.
