Re: Rainmakers in Dubai
Former colleague, old gliding mate of Pinky, did a big statistical study on cloud seeding here in the early '60s. From memory, it showed an increase in rain over the area studied, but don't know if it looked at effects upwing or downwind. I presume he looked at various atmospheric conditions, but do...

Re: It has been a wet April!
They’ve had some in DXB today as well :ymdevil: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/X0N9waR-tog That made the news here, Woody. We tend not to think of that sort of storm happening in those areas, but a water industry colleague showed me a video of a similar event in Quatar where he had worked. We've ha...

Re: The really boring and totally pointless snippets thread V
Can't find the right thread ! I can spell and pronounce Mr. ( Mister ) but how about Mrs. ? One often sees Missus in print, but is this right ? Is it really Miss uss ? or should it be Miss iss ? which is what I say. What do you do ? This question intrigued me some years ago. The best I could find w...

Re: The really boring and totally pointless snippets thread V
Why do all washing machines (or is it only Samsungs) play Schubert's "The Trout" song when they finish? Our last washing machine gae a nice loud 'ding' when it finished the cycle. The current one does nothing, and the countdown timer is never right. I always add 10 minutes to the time it says it wi...

Re: The really boring and totally pointless snippets thread V
Good morning all, clear blue skies, currently 16C, forecast max 25C. It has the makings of a perfect autumn day. In front of the house we have a large Gordonia tree, which flowers at this time of the year. The bees love it, as it allows them to stock up for winter. When the sun hits the top of it in...

Hope all goes well, Woderick, it sounds like Bluey (the nickname of all redheads in Australia) is on the ball, and hopefully, any problems have been caught early.
