Seas Have Drastically Risen Along Southern U.S. Coast In Past Decade

[occupied]

So you must live on the Gulf Coast.

Yes, for the last 45 years or so,

 

[MarathonMike]

The Gulf Coast is ALLLLLLL red states.

So that's your new fantasy? All the red gulf states go under water? Wow Democrat hate knows no bounds.

 

[HereWeGoAgain]

Yes, for the last 45 years or so,

Oh really...
Do you frequent the Gulf Coast as in fishing and boating?
I havent seen any rises on the Gulf Coast at all and I've lived here for 57 years.

 

[AZrailwhale]

The Gulf Coast is ALLLLLLL red states.

But the cities in danger are all blue.

 

[Orangecat]

What kind of idiot does it take to think that rising ocean levels would only affect certain coastlines?
Don't they realize that the oceans are all connected and water flows between them?
What a bunch of gullible maroons.

I frequent the gulf coast because I live and work here. I actually do most of my work right on the beach.

Seas Have Drastically Risen Along Southern U.S. Coast​

Just amazing. The ocean level must be deeper in some places than others! Must be why they are reporting a waterfall between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans!

Next week, water begins to run uphill!

I bet that's why all of the richest democrats are buying up all of the ocean-front property up and down the coasts, to get a firsthand view of all of the Climate Change!

 

[Esdraelon]

Mainly caused by subsidence.

I agree. I live roughly half the distance between P'cola and Mobile, Al. and have seen no significant rise.

So you're a beach Bum?
I've fished and surfed the Gulf Coast since I was kid and there's no indication of rising water......period.
Is there some erosion you bet.

 

[RoshawnMarkwees]

See, the Chinese keep building coal plants because they know that sea level rise only occurs in America and this is how they’ll ultimately defeat us.

I build beach houses. We used to put them on 8 foot pilings and it was enough until the disastrous 2005 hurricane season. We lost a lot of houses and buildings. Now we build then on 12-20 foot pilings.

 

[Dont Taz Me Bro]

Fake News.

It’s not fake news. I was in Venice, Louisiana back in 2010, which is about as far south as you can drive in the delta, and they were complaining about this back then.

LOL...so you lost them to hurricanes.
Gee what a surprise......
Erosion will do that.
How about you go back into the bays if the water was rising thats where you'd see it.

BWA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA!

I am not the least surprised you don't know the Pacific Ocean is higher than the Atlantic.

Is sea level the same all across the ocean?

The sea level varies around the globe

You're welcome.

 

[toobfreak]

I am not the least surprised you don't know...

I am not the least bit surprised that you don't know basic sentence construction.

 

[toobfreak]

You're welcome.

You're stupid. Any variation is transitory, driven solely by weather, wind, storms and such combined with currents and the rotation of the earth as a function of latitude.

I am not the least bit surprised that you don't know basic sentence construction.

Wow. You really like to show off your ignorance, don't you!

The ocean is coming soon to the front porches of climate change deniers.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/climate-environment/2023/04/10/sea-level-rise-southern-us/

Scientists have documented an abnormal and dramatic surge in sea levels along the U.S. gulf and southeastern coastlines since about 2010, raising new questions about whether New Orleans, Miami, Houston and other coastal communities might be even more at risk from rising seas than once predicted.

[snip]

The increase has already had major effects, researchers found. One study suggests that recent devastating hurricanes, including Michael in 2018 and Ian last year, were made considerably worse by a faster-rising ocean. Federal tide gauge data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration suggest that the sea level, as measured by tide gauge at Lake Pontchartrain in New Orleans, is eight inches higher than it was in 2006, just after Hurricane Katrina.

That's weird I've been going to the same gulf coast beaches for decades and haven't seen any of this. Of course Lake Pontchartrain was higher after Katrina it's called a storm surge and given the bayou area around the lake it takes a long time for it to go back to normal.

Damn my eyes for not seeing what I'm told I should believe.

Your eyes are so finely calibrated as to notice an eight inch rise in Lake Pontchartrain since 2006?
