Weather of Arabia - The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is still affected by the longest and most extensive rainy season for the 2022/2021 season, which came after a long period of rain stagnation. On Thursday, most regions of the Kingdom witnessed wide weather fluctuations in the context of the impact of the rainy situation on its ninth day, and rains of varying abundance fell in many areas, which led to the flow of valleys and the formation of torrential rain in some areas.
Specialists at the Arab Weather Center confirmed that the rains witnessed in the Kingdom were predicted in advance and referred to in its issued reports, and the necessary alerts were issued in this regard at the time. They added that linking the high intensity of rain in some regions of the Kingdom, such as the capital, Riyadh, to the rain seeding process is premature and requires data for years to ensure its effectiveness or not. .
On a related level, the process of seeding aims to increase the quantity and quality of precipitation for types of clouds to exploit their properties and stimulate and accelerate the process of precipitation over certain predetermined areas, and this is done by means of specialized aircraft that seed the stimulating materials in specific places of the clouds, and it is believed that they change the delicate physical processes within The cloud itself to stimulate the process of precipitation on the target areas and increase the amount of precipitation.
Specialists in the Arab Weather Center say that rain seeding operations do not cause rain in themselves (it is not useful if the atmosphere is not prepared for cumulus clouds), but it is believed that they stimulate precipitation to a certain degree, according to the findings of the latest scientific research and scientific and field experiments that are still in progress. Research and study.
