I've lived in Florida for 75 years except for seven years when I worked at the Hanford facility in Washington State. I have been in more than a dozen hurricanes in my life. I understand storm surge. You mistake storm surge for ocean level rise caused by that stupid scam of man made global warming. That makes you an idiot.
If sea level is raised 1 foot, what happens to what used to be a 10 foot storm surge? Idiot.
Very nice. Then how is it you don't understand what rising sea levels do to storm surges?I am also multi generational Floridan. My great great great Grandfather served in the 9th Florida regiment during the Civil War.
Very nice. Then how is it you don't understand what rising sea levels do to storm surges?My great grandfather bought a 2.9 acre beachfront lot in Pinellas County. He bought it in 1922 for $200. It is in the family now and it is one of three acreage beachfront properties in Pinellas County that have not been developed.
No, it is not.It is 1.5 feet above mean sea level at the low point and four feet at the high point. It floods out in almost every high surge storm in the Gulf. In my life time it has probably flooded ten times. However, the normal sea level at the property is the same as it has been for the four generations that have owned the property.
In your lifetime, sea levels at St Pete have risen 222.75mm (8.77 inches). If I take your four generations to be 120 years, sea level there has risen 356.4mm (14.03 inches) in that period.
What could have happened last week
There are a number of things concerning sea level rise with which you seem unfamiliar. Your memories of what sea level was 75 years ago, particularly considering what else can change over that period (isostasy, geodetic radius, erosion, sedimentary buildup, etc) are uselessly inaccurate. And the vast majority of sea level rise that we will suffer from the melting of Greenland and Antarctica has yet to take place.If there were real sea level rise due to man made global warming in that property then it would not be the same as it was when my Great Grandfather bought it. It is unchanged. Just like the picture of the Statue of Liberty I posted earlier. It has not even changed due to natural seal level rise.
Sea level rise is bullshit. Just another thing you stupid uneducated Moon Bats get wrong about Climate Science. You are an idiot and you should be embarrassed to post you lies.
