The world was shocked by the record-breaking rainfall in Dubai last month.
The desert city was inundated with more rain in a few days than typically falls in an entire year, killing at least 20 people across the United Arab Emirates and neighboring Oman.
It was also surprising that many blamed the downpour on something other than Mother Nature.
“The cause is actually from the use of weather modification,” filmmaker Robby Starbuck tweeted. “Play God, find out,” another person echoed.
Johan Jaques, a meteorologist for environmental tech firm Kisters, claimed the storm was brought on by cloud seeding, a method long used by the UAE for inducing rain by injecting clouds with silver iodide.
But the growing consensus is that cloud seeding had little or nothing to do with it.
