Some 52 unanticipated rain showers were witnessed in the deserts of Middle East. But there was nothing natural about them as they were created by ionizing devices. These were installed in Abu Dhabi and were part of the weather-modification program that has been started in the region by a company.

Meteo Systems of Switzerland is the company that has come up with the new idea but it has not been accepted and proved scientifically as of yet. While many anti-project teams and scientists have come up, the company and its research team is positive that it can soon put in front of them experimental proof.

Hartmut Grassl, former director of Germany's Max Planck Institute for Meteorology and a lead researcher who is also helping in monitoring the development of the project said that the team has made some good progress lately and they are sure that something can be soon developed.

Whatever the case may be, some areas in Abu Dhabi have seen wetter summer seasons and that can be attributed to the use of the machine. All those who are supporting the project are happy that they can now have water if and when they want.
