Inside Dubai's major cleanup operation after city left underwater by freak rainfall

- THE destructive deluge that engulfed Dubai on Tuesday could end up costing the glitzy city $1billion to clean up after the "apocalyptic" floods.
The torrential downpours left an airport submerged underwater, roads at a standstill and homes and businesses filled up with water as the cost of the damages begin to ramp up.
For Dubai, a years worth of rain fell in just 24-hours leaving the city woefully unprepared in infrastructure and flood prevention systems.
With the water only just beginning to clear up, Dubai is finally getting on the move again.
Billionaire businesses are desperate to reopen and recoup their losses from almost 100-hours worth of disruption but the clean up is going to continue to take its toll for a while longer, according to experts.

Maybe consider investing in some drains and a sewage system rather than just buying cars
they never thought of it when they built the city...
They really should've thought of that.😮
Maybe consider getting a few jobs before asking for benefits. Your jealousy is pathetic.
There are in the desert never anticipated this to happen
This has nothing to do with that, it's all about the unpredictibility of the weather today, it rained in one day the amount expected to one year, not surprised that sewage system in a desert country can collapse, imagine the collapse if you start having heat waves of 35C in Alaska during summer.
Moral of this story dont mess with nature doh .
The rains were natural SMH...they weren't the result of cloud seeding
YEH CLOUD SEEDING. MAN INDUCED WHETHER,
@@netad7771 Ive seen a video of them talking about it in dubi even seen the planes they used . In 2005, the UAE launched the UAE ... (WMO). In 2010, cloud seeding began as a project by weather authorities to create artificial rain. The project, which began in July 2010 and cost $11 million USD, succeeded in creating rain storms in the Dubai
@@johnydangerous4597ask any expert cloud seeding does not create such rains. Learn how cloud seeding works and most important is not even proven it's effectiveness. Small planes are used during cloud seeding operations and they can fly only in light clouds to increase precipitation. Such planes cannot go in huge rain clouds
@@netad7771they've admitted to flying cloud seeding missions the days before
What is the point of havng the biggest, the longest, the highest, the tallest etc etc when you have the lousiest drainage system in the world…
Its à désert dude
They don't expect it to rain there it's a desert. Probably a result of climate change
it will only flood when it rains
Guess they didn't think 🤔 that thru😅...
No worries, they will fix it
A city that is RICH.but no drainage?? OMG
Not just storm drainage, Dubai is famous for not having adequate sewerage collection and treatment. Spending 80% of investment for showoff! Further more, the city is located along ocean shoreline with a river flowing thru!!
That because it's desert and sandstorm
This reminds me of British drivers who refuse to buy snow chains for their wheels because they never need them, then every snowstorm the traffic grinds to a halt.
Their sewage collection are the porti potties aka instagram models. 😂😂
Maybe that's why cannot have adequate drainage . Climate change.
Right sewer... look at the water ... RIGHT....
There is nothing freak about this. They “seeded” the cloud for rain. The government should compensate the people for all the damages that the rain caused which came from their negligences.
They’ll NEVER admit it….‼️👀
SPOT ON, WELL DONE, CLOUD SEEDING, TRYING TO SAY IT IS CLIMATE CRISIS, GLOBAL WARMING. PISH
Yes , I heard that. Even after heavy rain had been forecast 😮
Seeding Clouds😂
Its not cloud seeding. Cloud seeding don't come in gargantuan amounts or with thunderstorm
That water is actually a blessing if they could collect, store it, and purify it like they do with salt water.
FRESH water.
At least they dont have to worry about the sewer system overflowing. There is no sewer system. Look at that forward thinking.
All the money in the World but nowhere for the rain to go unbelievable.
Seriously
😂😂😂😂
Which rain?
No matter what mankind things about their establishments, we all are diminish with respect to the nature.
Who builds a super city with no emergency drainage system to support it?
Emeratis
Morons.
It is a desert
Who thought that they will have this rain
Dumb Arabs 😂😂😂😂
@@oussamaalaoui9121 every desert can have occasional or rare massive flooding event these events are even mentioned in the Bible and Quran so they should have known. These people are Muslims do they not read their own holy book?
My mum always told me that “if you haven’t got anything good to say then don’t say anything at all”. 😂😂😂
0:30 World fuel is going to pay for their sewage system 😅😅
My mum said if I don't eat all my vegetables, there is no Playstation tonight😔

@@virusplayz7695 Get out in real world, stop hallucinating things in VR mode🤣
So did my mom
Cloud seeding gone wrong?
That is what I said
100%. weather manipulation is old tech
Maybe that, but i believe it has something to do with the global climate crisis too. Weather seems slightly off in the past years since pandemic.
you see results over around world, in same time flooded many places, yes UAE affected climate change with seeding clouds
Sure is.

Dubai is prime example of a rich city who fail at urban planning for climate emergency in the future. A lots of city now are preparing for an unexpected future from Arizona to Singapore . We must be prepare as we won't be able to reverse global warming due to human greed
Dubai is a very. Modern Country expensive country Beautiful country but there is no Big River in the the Meddle of the City Can't make Beautiful Country if don't have a Canal BIG River once the Typon Comes the are Floating. Good Experience to Dubai
Those skyscrapers will soon have structural damage big time.

Yes same, my best friend lives in dubai and her school and both her house is flooded the only thing that has broken down was her school. She still lives here and she still hasn’t texted me nor replied and I am worried as she is a very fast Texter
My advice to Dubai government is please reinstall bigger bore drains and build extra pumping stations around Dubai so in future all the water can be drained quickly
First time experience now they will make buildings and roads according to rain😂
In western countries they built Infrastructures first before the buildings while in Dubai they built buildings first before the infrastructures. Infrastructure is more important than the beatiful buildings.
dubai doesn't typically see a lot of rain naturally so sewer systems aren't a priority, but due to cloud seeding they over flooded themselves
I worked in the Middle East for 10 years and was always on about drainage they just laughed and wasted a waste of money as far as they were concerned, and that would never ever change. They get a convoy of lorries to suck the water and dump straight in the sea.
Cloud seeding, and their aims was to crush small businesses
What's the point of doing this?@@WhiteHairRules-cu6yr
Uae was built in 50 years. I don’t think other countries are even able to do anything close to what the uae has done.
First built Infrastructures and then later buildings!
It's Common sense!
After flooding the mould grows ....water damage to buildings like cancer
in your country there never was a flood? nice. tell me which one it is
US$ 1 billion worth of infra damages...that's just a tiny fraction of Dubai's Royalty's wealth.
Thinking of all who are suffering and may your days be better from now on. Bless you all - from Australia
I feel a fuel price increase loading. The world will pay for the repair work.
No they don’t need the pennys they can afford the clean up after we know they created the issue in the first place
Dubai has no oil
@@Gerryjournal They do but not as much as Abu Dhabi. It’s running out.
Big Village Dubai 😆

Don't mess with mother nature 😮
THIS ISINT MOTHER NATURE. ITS CLOUD SEEDING, RUSSIA DID IT TO PREVENT FALL OUT FROM CHERNOBYL,
BRITAIN ALSO DID IT IN 1945.. OPEN YOUR EYES AND EARS, FIND OUT ON THE INTERNET
dont mess with uneducated 😂

Odlično ste si uredili. Še naprej se igrajte z naravo.

Yep
Power to cause misery for every human who ever lived.
Same like hamas didn't believe in the Karma and raped and murdered innocent Jews. Now they are suffering from their karma

Dubai is soo beautiful country I'm been meny years Dubai I'm loving oo God please help Dubai I'm wishing God will look after this country i will pray.
N’importe quoi tu as pensé aux gens tues et enterré qui construisaient ce pays de merde va n’avez encore rien vu c’est le début dieu va fera ça dur
Not a country but ok
No problem with the system in Dubai. Sunamis make things difficult. So, they are going to clear the mess & 1 billion dollars is nothing for them. Everyone will contribute to build this city again to work with Jess clearing as well. Wishing best days again.
this is luxury, without any infrastructure for rain
Have you study Geography? Normal climate of a desert topography? It is a desert for a reason.
Do know that UAE is located in the desert?
They have never had such rain in there life
They mase this rain because they didn't get enough rain, that why flood safety hasnt been a issue
@@joela8979You seem to not know basic things about this rain, it started in the Persian gulf naturally. cloud seeding was not done, cloud seeding enhances rain, and is done through small Cessna planes, this storm had very powerful winds those planes could not fly through so they can’t enhance the rain.
@@meerosman9696 Massive flooding events can and do take place in the desert it is even mentioned in the Bible and Quran. Do these Muslims not read their own holy book?
Indeed, do not mess with it's Nature Mother of the Earth.
Apparently it is not Mother Nature, it was cloud seeding.
@@jhutchings7627 I know? I'm literally saying you don't mess with Nature.
That's what happens when you dig up the sea bed to build islands, looks like nature is has responded, and it serves you right Dubai
NO city in the world could have coped with such deluge. It a very rare event to prepare. Perhaps less concretisation may have reduced the impact. Porous road surface could be considered.
Tokyo disagrees.
@CzesiaPL When did it receive annual rainfall in ONE day?
Weather warfare. What did they not agree to recently? What did they need punishing for by the global mobsters?
The cabal doesn't need a reason.
It's the salves that i feel sorry for!
Yes they will get 0 help!!
Indians
@@Laughs_Loudest ... issue bars of soap 🧼 😅
What a complete dump, i can't fathom why people would want to visit this place even on vacation let alone live there
I have never understood the interest that people have to go there.
They would refuse to build drainage. 100%, they have not saved one drop of that deluge.
No drainage would save you from this type of storm . You must understand this region climate gets not such an unusual event . In Europe why don't homes have AC instead of people dying from heat? Because the environment was not so hot before
A warning shot? Punishment for something? All by design.
nope, just simple calamity that may happen to your country also😂😂
Fool

The least place you want to buy an umbrella.
Dubai need water drainage systems, rivers, water treatment facilities, water proof every building, yeah, Dubai has a lot of work to do..
You may have to alter your entire infrastructure..
Dubai's method is Buildings first before Infrastructures.

Praying for all of you!
Unfortunately this is what happens when your main priority is to build a city that looks all shiny but lacks basic infrastructure, hidden infrastructure is more important than an indoor snow field in the desert, ask any other country around the world, underground infrastructure takes 30-40 years to establish, then you create the buildings
Such jealousy

Put in the drainage infrastructure whilst carrying out the repair and cleaning

It's a dump to begin with
The flood will soften the earth underneath the high rise buildings
What will happen to those buildings
Might be not safe to live as the building might collapse
it was not a freak storm it was a product of cloud seeding congrats it worked do not think you are god
THIS is the feedback of nature
Dubai stay safe .
Dubai helpful peoples 😊
The Arabs need to stop building stupidly tall buildings and ski resorts in the desert and concentrate their money and foreign workers to build simple infrastructure such as DRAINAGE SYSTEMS! Simples.
Hell no!!! We need cheap labour. Humans have never been equal and never will be. No silly Western laws and rules. Swimming pools opened again and it’s 30 plus during the day hurray! 👍🏻😎

Where is more fun? In stupidly tall buildings and ski resorts in the desert or in DRAINAGE SYSTEMS? Ha?
And stop destroying Yemen and interfering politically in neighbouring countries
My advice, build a good sewerage system and provide lots of greenery in the city for cooling. This will happen more often in the future. The bigger the city, the more heat is generated. And that's what (I think) creates these terrible storms and tornadoes.
Yes , sad.😢
Oh man!😮 Mother Nature attacked I hope they all recover fast and business continue, God bless you all!
That's OK. They are filthy rich to rebuild. Sad though for the affected people.
Billionaires can afford the cleanup.. feeling sorry for the less than people 😢

Its not.

Built by slaves
Very true, mostly from third world countries paying them 200dollars a month living in squallers. Pay back time for these full of greedy people. In the UAE, if you look asian Indian South East Asian,you are a not human just a slave. Like in the days of Pharaoh. Its freedom time for their slaves
Yup. God is angry with them for doing that.
Own by evil.

Yes and Ty for pointing out the truth.
Excellent work by UAE ❤❤
I cannot believe this city state does not have a drainage system! Isn't that part of City Planning 101?
When you spray salt in the clouds and think it's okay
it's amazing and touching to see some people help.while some people, especially people from united Kingdom who now live in dubai and make money in dubai are busy partying in clubs near the burj al arab posting videos on Instagram. sickening

Advanced city without decent drainage system.
there is no rainwater drainage since the region doesnt get much rain so its not practical, but this maybe a wake up call

In three weeks I have seen one guy in one two person kayak helping one other person. Where are the hundreds of thousands of people in the city? How are they getting food? How are they getting water? How is the sewage being brought out of the Burj Khalifa? They don’t need tiny toy boats, they need large flat bottomed air filled Zodiaks.

I lived in Dubai for 2 years. A simple 10mins of rain already causes massive headache due to clogged or small drains. Given how the government spend billions on infrastructure, its time to wake up thinking about upgrading the Drainage systems and Water collection/ recycling systems. Gas is actually cheaper than water here.

As someone who lives in an area that's constantly under the threat of hurricanes during storm season , l'd say that Dubai went through a hurricane judging from the images. If not , it most have gone through a tropical storm.
