Dubai deluged AGAIN just weeks after floods swamped city with flights cancelled & roads impassable
TORRENTIAL rain is again battering Dubai just two weeks after severe flooding engulfed the city.
Authorities have issued an emergency public safety alert - warning residents to stay safe as storms sweep across.
On April 14 and 15, Dubai suffered its heaviest rainfall in more than 70 years, sparking what was branded "biblical" flooding.
A year's worth of rain poured in just 24 hours, with the city woefully unprepared.
An airport was left submerged underwater, roads at a standstill and homes and businesses filled up with water.
It is feared the destructive deluge could end up costing Dubai up to $1billion to clean up damage.

As a newbie that wants to invest, you must have these three things in mind 1. Have a long term mindset. 2. Be willing to take risk. 3. Be careful on money usage, if you're not spending to earn back, then stop spending. 4. Never claim to know - Ask questions and it's best you work with a financial advisor.

Those eruptions were relatively minor compared to others over the past 2,000 years. The primary gas released by volcanic eruptions is sulphur dioxide, which can cause global cooling if enough is released by an eruption, or several eruptions by different volcanos at roughly the same time. At least 2 major eruptions and possibly 3, are known to have caused the cooling and dimming of the sun during the Dark Ages. There are currently around 30 eruptions going on around the world right now, and scores more that are venting but not erupting. It has been that way for eons.

Cloud seeding was done half a century ago over West US, it wasn't reliable enough to continue, hard to say it worked at all as you don't know what would have happened. Then there's the issue of reducing precip further inland which is also in perpetual short supply in dessert West.

Due to a change in weather patterns Dubai should improve their drainage and sewage syatems.
o.k. some raindrops i saw today.... and the system go balistic.... interesting, as in germany or UK nobody would even take notice of the weather conditions we saw today ! but it`s not fair to tell that it is a major problem for air traffic, as in UK they are not even able to handle a normal summer holiday season which they are prepared for already long in advance. here the weather was unexpected, but anyhow they could sort it out within shortest period of time and the city work again as normal. and that what we saw today, in 2 days nobody even will remember about it !!!
If Dubai is still a desert today, I think surely there’ll be no problem even if the strongest storm hits it.
