NASA predicts a "wobble" in the moon's orbit may lead to record flooding on Earth

Every coast in the U.S. is facing rapidly increasing high tide floods thanks to a "wobble" in the moon's orbit working in tandem with climate change-fueled rising sea levels.

A new study from NASA and the University of Hawaii, published recently in the journal Nature Climate Change, warns that upcoming changes in the moon's orbit could lead to record flooding on Earth in the next decade.

Through mapping the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) sea-level rise scenarios, flooding thresholds and astronomical cycles, researchers found flooding in American coastal cities could be several multiples worse in the 2030s, when the next moon "wobble" is expected to begin. They expect the flooding to significantly damage infrastructure and displace communities.

Oh, please.

What a bunch of meadow muffins.

In other news—wealthy folks like Obozo are panic selling all their oceanside property for pennies on the dollar....

oh wait....

[llevrok]

Uh oh

how does this fit the glow-bull warming narrative??

[a fool in paradise]

Manmade Climate Catastrophe!

[Hypo2]

So...not Global Warming?

[stars & stripes forever]

The water isn't going anywhere.

Planet X?

White Moon be raciss.

[Political Junkie Too]

The water in the oceans is finite.

If we see record flooding on our coastlines, doesn't that mean that somewhere else will see record droughts or water table shrinkage?

STOP THE WOBBLE !

SEND MONEY NOW !

....should be easy enough

When you get caught between the wobbling moon and New York City, the best that you can do is fall in love...

Oh crap. Now even more hysterical hypersensitive ill-informed brainwashed helpless infantile emotionally driven triggered by microaggressions and weather and plastic and traumas and drama libs will migrate to Colorado. Hopefully they can’t find enough plugs for their Priuses and Leafs and such to make it this far.

How convenient.

[HighSierra5]

Move to 5000 ft. That oughta do it.

It’s obvious solution is more regulations and taxes! /s

So are sea levels in fact rising? The pictures from the beach at Cornwall taken 95 years apart show the see pretty much the same. Or is Cornwall somehow exempt from sea-level rise?

There might be something to this. My wobble toy collection has been wobbling more than usual lately. It has to be due to climate change! What other reason could it be?
