Boffins have gone to seed.

Bad weather earlier this week could have been man-made as UAE scientists were trying out cloud seeding techniques. Cloud seeding, which sees cloud seeding salts sprayed to induce rainfall, was tried out on moist clouds heading towards Abu Dhabi, Dubai and Al Ain by the Meteorological Department at the National Centre of Meteorology on Tuesday morning. Rainfall was subsequently recorded in areas of Abu Dhabi and Dubai.

The scientists planned to repeat the tests yesterday, so dust off your umbrella as we could be in for a wet one.
