Little Ferry/MetLife Stadium The Jersey Shore is not the only place expected to be hit harshly by flood issues with 3 feet of sea level rise. Little Ferry, next to the Hackensack River, is coated in blue on NOAA’s map — denoting flooding problems. Thoroughfares in Moonachie and much of Teterboro, home to an airport, would be affected too. MetLife Stadium in Rutherford, a few towns over from the Hudson River and the future setting of a World Cup final, would be near flooding forecasted from Berry’s Creek, Peach Island Creek and Ackermans Creek. https://www.nj.com/atlantic/2024/07/11-nj-neighborhoods-that-will-be-completely-underwater-by-the-end-of-the-century.html 2 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post T0mShane Posted July 13 Popular Post Share Posted July 13 How you know this is true is that all the vulture investors who swooped in to develop coastal property after Sandy built all their high-end condos on massive pylons and everything else was built on the dirt. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Bugg Posted July 13 Popular Post Share Posted July 13 Live in a seaside community along the Atlantic that got slammed by Sandy. So as a community, we hired a geologist and he did a workup on rising seas. NYC has been inhabited by Europeans who have kept track of tides and water levels in NY Harbor forever since it's a major port. In fact the seas has been rising at just about 1 foot per century, but no more. That's livable. You do have erosion from storms, but it's not the same thing necessarily. I don't seen any drop in the prices of oceanfront real estate. Although some insurance companies have stopped wrting flood policies. And flood policies limit your recovery to rebuild from a flood to only $250K. So classify this as alarmist nonsense. Though will not miss Metlife for a moment should it slip beneath the waves. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larz Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 1 hour ago, T0mShane said: Yeah, I was like “the East Coast sinking ~3 inches into the ocean every 25 years seems pretty, pretty bad.” The feedback loops are devastating and very difficult to read. They have to adjust every 5 years and it just gets worse. Global mean sea level has risen about 8–9 inches (21–24 centimeters) since 1880. The rising water level is mostly due to a combination of melt water from glaciers and ice sheets and thermal expansion of seawater as it warms. In 2022, global mean sea level was 101.2 millimeters (4 inches) above 1993 levels, making it the highest annual average in the satellite record (1993-present). Now the bad news: the report reaffirmed that many parts of the United States can expect their local rate and overall amount of sea level rise to exceed the global average. Extrapolating from observed rates, sea levels on average along the contiguous U.S. are expected to rise as much over the next 30 years (10-12 inches over 2020-2050) as they have over the last 100 years (1920-2020). In some regions, the increases will be even larger. In the western Gulf of Mexico, for example, sea level rise is likely to be about 16-18 inches higher than 2020 levels by 2050—almost a ½ foot higher than the national average. https://www.climate.gov/news-features/understanding-climate/climate-change-global-sea-level these are the good old days. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's also the question of "was this caused by human activity?" Because if not, then the whole thing is even more of a sham. Quote I don't seen any drop in the prices of oceanfront real estate. Bingo! Though I guess we have to account for inflation. But the way prices have gone up, I think it's safe to say that your point holds firm! Also, look at the elites. They're really avoiding that oceanfront property!!! https://nypost.com/article/inside-obamas-marthas-vineyard-estate/ https://www.realtor.com/news/celebrity-real-estate/bill-and-melinda-gates-purchase-beach-house-in-del-mar/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
