Quick Glance: Look: NASA Reveals Images of UAE's Flooded Areas After Heavy Rains

The US space agency NASA has unveiled photos of flooded areas in the UAE following heavy rains that struck various parts of the Emirates.

A 'slow-moving storm' system by NASA battered the Gulf states, dropping more rain in some cities than in a typical year.

The images show that parts of Abu Dhabi were also inundated by the storms, with the Sheikh Zayed Road covered in water on April 19, along with flooded areas in Khalifa City and Zayed City visible.

The unprecedented rains disrupted life in the country, but swift efforts from the government, public, and companies have helped the country quickly return to normalcy.

Quick Glance: Trump Event in Wilmington Canceled Due to Severe Weather

The planned campaign rally for former President Donald Trump in Wilmington had to be canceled due to the threat of inclement weather.

Shortly before 7 p.m., Trump was supposed to take the stage, but he informed the crowd that the event needed to be canceled due to an impending storm.

The storm brought strong winds and hail, leading to the cancellation of the rally, which was meant to be Trump's first major campaign event since the start of his criminal trial in New York City.

As Trump shifted his views on abortion, the Democratic National Committee seized his visit to criticize him for his abortion policies.

Quick Glance: Cause of Dubai Flooding: Cloud Seeding or Natural Phenomenon?

Dubai grapples with the aftermath of heavy rainfall. Speculations on the role of cloud seeding are being discussed.

Clouds consist of tiny water droplets that coalesce around particles to form rain. Cloud seeding manipulates this process.

The effectiveness of cloud seeding is scientifically debated, with limited evidence of its efficacy.

Experts refute the claim that cloud seeding was the primary cause of the flooding in Dubai.
