The seas lapping against America’s coastlines are rising ever faster and will be 10 to 12 inches higher by the year 2050, with major Eastern cities hit regularly with costly floods even on sunny days, a government report says.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and six other federal agencies issued a 111-page report Tuesday that warns of “significant consequences” from rising seas in the next few decades, with parts of Louisiana and Texas projected to see waters a foot and a half (0.45 meters) higher.
However, the worst of the long-term sea level rise from the melting of ice sheets in Antarctica and Greenland probably won’t kick in until after 2100, the study’s lead author said.
Because of climate change, the nation’s coastlines on average will see as much sea level rise in the next 30 years as they did in the previous century , said lead author William Sweet, an oceanographer for NOAA’s National Ocean Service.
While higher seas cause much more damage when storms such as hurricanes hit the coast, they are becoming a problem even on sunny days.

Right.
That’s why all of the globalists, like Nasty PeLOUSY, 0blama, etc., have all recently bought OCEAN FRONT properties, around the country.
Well, then it wouldn’t be a centuries worth of sea rise then.
Obama and Joe...don’t seem worried.
They tried the climate change thing to scare the bejeesus out of us. We can see they are still trying.
But it’s not working that well so they came up with the pandemic.
Which is not working so well either.
They want to take over the world, led by Hillary.
Perhaps. As great as. Could see, would see, might be, may be ...
The actual measured global average sea level rise remains constant at 2.3 to 2.4 mm per year.
1 inch per decade.
10 inches per hundred years.
1 meter (40 inches) in 400 years.
And those projections ONLY IF the current temperature continues to rise for the next 400 years.
Historically, we are naturally beginning just the latest in many “maximum points” of the earth’s 900-1000 year long-term temperature cycle: These maximums occurred before during the Egyptian Optimum (3000 BC),
Stonehenge Period (2000 BC),
the Minoan Warming Period (1000 BC),
the Roman Warming Period (100 BC-00 AD),
the Medieval Warming Period (1100-1200 AD),
and now today’s Modern Warming Period (2000-2100 AD.)
January’s actual measured global average temperature measurements by satellite (to measure above ALL of the earth at the same time in each orbit) including arctic, antarctic, oceans, tropical jungles, ice fields, tundra, plains, steppes, farm land and cities and forests was 0.03 higher than the year 2000 baseline. 1/3 of one degree higher than the same measurement in 1979. Now 43 years of “catastrophic global warming” and we are only 1/3 of one degree higher than when accurate measurement began.
Just remember: “10 inches in 100 years.”
1/3 of one degree in 43 years. “Less than 1 degree per 100 years.”
Tap beer and chicken wings?
Oh wait, I'm sorry, the sea rise may flood out your favorite pub. You may want to organize a sandbag effort in the next 10 Years. Just to be on the safe side. Keep in mind, we only have some 9.5 years before planet Earth dies according to Al Gore and the little bitch Thurnberger.
So is locking down the world for a virus with a 0.01% fatality rate. The enviro crap will turn our kids against us.
Those are NOT the words of science.
BS
I live in San Francisco Bay Area and the tide is no different today than when I was born a long time ago...
Hell, SanFranNan bought oceanfront property to retire to right down the road in Hobe Sound. She’s not very worried about it.
I just knew there had to be a reason rich liberals were buying ocean front mega mansions... collect the flood insurance money.
It resets January 1st, every two years...
Thank goodness global climate change will have destroyed the planet by then.
Methinks the oceans hate rich democrats. Why? Because look at all the democrats who build mansions on the beaches.
Sunny beeches.

Hey AP, I'll bet you everything I own that the ocean WON'T be 10"-12" inches higher, or even 1"-2" higher, by 2050.
So many stories of people 80 90 years old saying the tide STILL rolls in just where it did when they were kids.
Boy, did you ever nail it.
Just finished watching a couple of Youtube videos on Greenland posted by natives.
What a God awful place to live. Nothing but ice, snow and rocks during the 8 month, dark winter and rocks in the remaining summer.
No trees, no flowers, no forests, no landscaping, just rocks rocks rocks.......
It's no wonder Greenland leads the world in suicides, mostly brought on by alcoholism.....
