Abu Dhabi: The Meteorological Department at the National Centre of Meteorology and Seismology (NCMS) on Tuesday carried out tests to induce artificial rains.

The NCMS used aircraft to sprinkle cloud seeding salts in moist clouds heading towards Abu Dhabi, Dubai and Al Ain.

The monitoring stations subsequently registered light to medium rainfalls in different areas of Abu Dhabi and Dubai.

The centre is planning to repeat the tests on Wednesday.
