All the multimillion dollar mansions on that coast are being sold for building materials salvage cost.

I could never figure out how the deep water knows to stay out of the shallow end of the pool.

[Seaplaner]

I only scanned the article, however the author is less than merely ignorant.

If the "seas" have drastically risen along the US SE coast, then they would have risen drastically everywhere on our fine planet. (It's Archimedes' Principle. Not at all difficult.)

Bottom line, if the "seas" were rising, then the Maldives (near the equator, low, low height above sea level) would have been under the sea years ago.

Deceit and Fear.

The middle names of the Dems and the left.

[Da Coyote]

So seas only rose on the east coast, eh?

Does anything additional need be said? Oh, and the COVID worked, masks work, and wind and solar power are the future.

[No name given]

Yeah, if they’ve risen, shouldn’t we be living like the characters in the movie “Waterworld”?

[ConservativeInPA]

Only 4”? Poor fella

[Equine1952]

Heeheeeee! It wasn’t easy I turned the ruler around. Wish I had thought of that sooner.

[Blue Collar Christian]

I’m thinking those southern boys know to back away from the water if it comes up closer.

Interesting how they state the sea level is rising, when it is the land being eroded and/or sinking.

[SuperLuminal]

What BS!

I can look out over the top of this computer and still see both of my busted dock pilings sticking out of the water at high tide, and they look exactly the same as they did after Isabel pulled one of my docks apart and left these busted pilings behind...

Stinking communist bull crap!

If you look carefully at the globe you realize that all of the world's land areas are just islands.The Atlantic,Pacific,Indian Ocean are just one big ocean with a number of islands...some huge,some tiny.

So the same rise seen in Florida would be seen in Australia...Africa...Asia....

[dforest]

No they haven’t.

[lurk]

Who writes this stuff? And who is dull enough to believe it?

[al baby]

[dforest]

Yeah, but if you say it with authority, many Americans are ignorant and will never question it.

[imabadboy99]

This is dangerous misinformation / disinformation. Shut em down folks.

[AZJeep]

Yes.
If global warming would be the case, all the seas would rise the same.
Since it is a localized effect, then it must be caused by sinking the land in those areas!

[eyedigress]

PCB is underwater.

Or not.

[Reno89519]

What, did Key West flood?

[rfp1234]

Sounds like subsidence, while water levels remain the same.

I hope 0bama and Big Mike have water wings! Sure would hate to see anything happen to them and spoil their, ‘American Taxpayer Paid-for Dream Life!’
