I’m seeing more Iranian taxi drivers telling me Iran is having more rainfall after Iranian attacks on the Persian Gulf Arab countries.

I don’t know if it’s a conspiracy or if there’s some logic behind it, but it’s been raining (& thundering) a lot lately.

Very interesting 🤔

    My mother has told me similiar things. A lot of people in Iran are apparently saying that the gulf Arab countries and US were somehow preventing rain because Iran has been in a drought for a few years now.

    Personally I've not seen any evidence for this beyond what could be a mere coincidence. Though if someone more adept in the fields of meteorology and climatology could way in on it, that would be much appreciated. Personally I just assume it's climate change and extreme weather conditions.

    I know cloud seeding is a thing; it would be curious to know if they can induce drought that way too.
