A Swiss company has announced the successful testing of a new weather control technology to creat rainstorms in the barren, arid deserts of Abu Dhabi

A Swiss corporate has introduced the successful checking out of a new weather control technology, which it claims has created as many as fifty rainstorms within the barren, arid deserts of Abu Dhabi (UAE). The corporate, Zug, Switzerland-based totally Meteo Techniques has invented a gadget that uses large ionizers -- essentially cloth-loose umbrellas on long steel poles.

Those generate fields of negatively charged particles that upward push with mud from the desolate tract and advertise cloud formation, the company says, and due to this fact rain.

Meteo Systems filed a patent application on February 4, 2010, for the new technology, which it brands Weathertec. The patent app describes "methods and devices for modifying atmospheric conditions, known in this context as weather modification, by enhancing electric forces exerted on and between particles of atmospheric air such as water particles, aerosols, molecular clusters, and water molecules possessing their own electric dipole moment."

Reports suggest that this ionizing technology also created hailstorms, which leads Golden to speculate that the researchers involved may be connected to an anti-hail project from the 70s.

While the potential to create rain in the desert would be revolutionary, Golden and others stress that without data, there's simply no way to verify the hype.
