- Опубликовано: 16 апр 2024
- Passengers crowded around airline desks at Dubai International Airport on Wednesday after major delays and cancellations caused by heavy rains.
The United Arab Emirates was hit by what the government described as the highest rainfall in the past 75 years. The rains began on Monday night, and by Tuesday evening the desert city of Dubai had received the average amount of rain it normally gets in a year.
Although the heavy rains had eased by late Tuesday, disruptions were continuing on Wednesday, with Emirates airline suspending check-in for passengers departing from Dubai until midnight

So much water in a desert?
That's a blessing!
Not all at once!?! It’s dangerous and damaging.
Or a warning
Not a blessing
Na it's clouds seedling
Stay home and you will not get stuck ....i only vacation in my own country....i will never got to dubai ...american is still the best place to be....
🤣🤣🤣 Enjoy Dubai! Rich country with so much wealth!
🙄Dubai is a city in the UAE.
Since when was dubai a country😂😂
Normal day in England
That's why our country is so naturally green and beautiful. We don't have to seed clouds.
We know how to build drains here you know!
Too right
Why does he rest of the world fall to pieces when it rains everyday , people n the uk just get on with things
@@mikecahill3989cause in the UK, rain is normal, so everything is Build in consideration of that. In places like Dubai, it rarely rains, but it when do rains, it rains heavily. Since it does not rain everyday, the infrastructure is also not built to withstand that rain.
Rich country like this can collect water for future
Have you not seen where Dubai is? They don't need the water supply I'm sure.
Bruh you can’t drink ocean water.
@@Thaddeus-ml8if I know. Do you need educating on this?
@Thaddeus-ml8if In Dubai you can, all thanks to desalination.
I was watching a documentary about UAE and all that even desalination is not enough as world's water condition is deteriorating and these countries need more for future generations
Can they not adjust their cloud seeding ops?
Cloud seeding didn't cause this, it's a natural storm.
Lol
@@bruh0965 that rained 1.5 years worth of rain in 1 day, yeah ok.
@@bruh0965 lol cool story bro
They are too arrogance to adjust to anything.
What Dubai need to build is not those record breaking tall buildings and shopping centres. What they need is to build record breaking mega underground water reservoirs. Which can help against floods and unlimited fresh water.
All cultures aren't equal
How you going home have you not seen the runways 😂 standing by a desk complaining to someone ain’t going to clear the floods 😂
There’s not much to do but wait and hope the situation improves.
It’s not rich Saudis who will suffer in these floods.
It’s disgusting how people joke about a natural disaster because they don’t like the nation.
To be fair, even if the storm was natural, it’s a bit silly to not have any form of drainage in a city where the government is actively trialing cloud seeding.
@TheMrClutchy 🌧🌧👳♂👳♂🌧🌧🐫🐫🌧🌧
@@NaenaeGaming they got two years worth of rain in a day mate
This isn’t because of cloud seeding
@@TheMrClutchy I didn’t say it was. Read an article just before posting that comment on meteorologists confirming the storm was natural.
As a person who lives in Dubai. The rain caused many places to lose power and many schools to close.
Welcome to the real world I guess 🤷🏻♂️
Stop wars around the world this is consequences, climate is changing.
Weird how everyone seems to have stopped caring already. Must have been a slow news day
I dont know why people think this is cloud seeding 🤦♂️ cloud seeding just makes it rain for like 5-10 minutes and it stops. This storm also swept over other countries in the middle east
Emeitus airlines treated passengers very rudely, I was stranded at Dubai airport for three days without food and slept on floor on way to Houston
Serves you right going to Dubai😅
Stay broke.
@@zachary3603stay stranded.
@@zachary3603it’s not expensive to go to Dubai Yano 😂😂😂 you can get a hotel and flights for 1000 all in 🤷🏿♂️

@@vandammejam lol. Okay buddy. Enjoy your life ;).
I read a list of all the patents for weather manipulation, the first was in 1891, and continues all the way to 2023, it is a huge list, nature doesn't need our interference.

@@beaulieuc8910 And yet the centre for cloud seeding for the UAE is in Abu Dhabi, complete with an aircraft with the dispersal method.
@@beaulieuc8910 keep takin that booster 🤡
Yes it does, the weather is so much better with rain, if they didn’t cloud seed it would rain like once every 5 years
They invested all this money on tourism but not in other sectors. Hopefully the weather monitoring agencies in dubai might acknowledge climate change soon
Mother Nature doesn’t care how rich your country is. When she’s ready to show Mankind who is boss, she just turns on the water works😢😢😢😢😢
It was weather engineering
It was weather manipulation.
My flight was the first to make it out after the flood… I was there for 26 hrs
Guess that's what happens when you mess with the weather, they've been cloud seeding, haven't they?
Nope. Storms in March and April do happen.
Yes
Flash floods occur all over the world.....
tinhat
@@ds1868 Two things can be true at the same time.
Cloud seeding at its finest!
At least we can see now that it really works. 😀
Now we, the Mankind, can begin to terraform other planets. 😀

Apparently cloud seeding had nothing to do with it, and the computer models knew about it well before and to the mm. Now if only our weathermen can get hold of those models.
@@beaulieuc8910 ignorance is bliss huh 🎉
@@Libertariunnatural, according to those who told you it was safe and effective.
Unless there’s a wedding, funeral or job interview to get to, go book another night or 2 in the hotel. Maybe they’ll have a room with a waterbed now too 😎
I was literally in dubai airport 2 days ago.. omg im so lucky- although it was hailing when i got back to the UK 😭😭
No matter how rich you are you’re still stuck.
الهروب الكبير
صدقت اخي العزيز
Hela arbi my barbi. Anta maknus. Say seyara. Salami tak tak. Anti zubi.
Rain on concrete and nowhere to go. 😂
April showers is an international thing. My cab driver from Afghanistan told me that in London
haha
Maybe Dubai should have consulted that cabby in London.. seems like he's better than the metrologists... Job on Dubai one chanel... They have even shown the weather problems 😂😂😂😂😂😂
People need to relax
.... and have some KitKat! 😀
I’d never go to that sand pit
Never travel in mercury retrograde ! 😂😂😂
Mess with nature and nature bites back!!!
The operations must have stopped prior to the storm as predicted earlier, then the 1000's of stranded passengers would hv not suffered and avoided airline costs, hope someone learn out of this lesson learnt!
They have money for tall buildings but not for infrastructure
Even an organized state becomes impotent in the face of nature's fury.
yes, most sane comment
(ignores dubais horrible city planning)
Cannot believe this is DUBAI ; was planning a holiday DUBAI to ABU DHABI and back home ; wonder what will happen all those who booked their holidays on this day; I hope all are safe
Wow 😢
Be safe…
Guees the Tax dodgers dont like water.😠
it would be time to think about installing water drains and thinking about Gaza
Kind of unexpected in a desert-surrounded city.
lesson...never stay in dubai for more than 5 days...this will happen again and again...
Come to the UK habibi we have lots of rain
so much better and less stressful to stay at home. minimalism Imagine being stuck there with a baby
Right, better to not live life and see the world because you might get caught in a rare event that happens every 75 years. 🥇
Guess that’s what happens when you mess with the Planet 🌍

Karma for going to Dubai 😂😂😂
Modern city with worse sewage systems that the Romans had built by slaves. Progress? Least the Roman architecture looks nice.
Thats why no matter where you are, you plan your city with a drainage system😁
There is a drainage system, but this flood was soo immense that even the drainage system over flooded
And it took 2 to 3 days for the city to get back on track, atleast what I now of for Abu dhabi.
Also take into consideration this an event you can't prepare for, it's the desert after all, and yet the government has done astonishing work to get the city running again.
Dozens? Are u sure? Thousands I d say…
They make the rain in dubai no surprised
Nothing to do but wait...until weather permits..😐
Little India
Dubai u no need to made tunal for water u have your own water reserve now 😂
Why emirate permission to flight coming in Dubai?. It They have not plan to departure.
properties in Dubai will be worth less now knowing it floods
Should've taken Top Gear seriously when they said we need their Hovercraft
We’ve had that much in uk everyday for last 6 months
we certainly have
Did they wade there? Hope it dries out soon. Come to Scotland. If you get stranded for 6 weeks, it will pass or you will have an air and sea rescue crew waiting to pick you up.
Weather modification . What can you say?
Power of hindhutva started in dubai.
What a shame
I’d rather not fly in that weather
10 bucks it effects around the world.
Waheguru a plz safe all and stop rain plz
As a person who went to DXB airport back in Summer of 2023 there were no chaos 😂
You sure this isn't Scotland 🤔
Should of stayed at home, saved the environment, this is what you get for Twenty years of shooting chemicals into the atmosphere to make it rain
Welcome to Dubai😂😂😂
Having to get a boat taxi to your plane. Interesting. 😂. I am sure the travellers will get well looked after while they wait. Its Dubai. 🙏
Come to duabi habibi
Surely he was home
Sympathy 🤔 Absolutely zero, maybe more people will go to there now
It will dry quickly in 4 to 5 days😂😂
Why on earth would you want to go there anyway? 😂
Money, money, money, nothing else there!
You poor so don’t bother.
dubai is a stopover for many places
Habibi come to Dubai and have fun of rain and modern advance country
Unexpected Norm bro . Deal with it 😊
Habibi Ran away from Dubgai
