Can someone in Charleston give me an update on water levels
May 14, 2019, 10:40 AM
|

?
I was going to head down in a few weeks for vacation, but if climate change has caused the oceans to flood Charleston, I'll probably just go to Gatlinburg instead.

There is a chance, albeit slight, that Gatlinburg will still be above water by then...

Well with the Icebergs that have broken off and floated up from Antarctica and those that have floated south from the Arctic should collide on Saturday making for excellent surfing. Temperatures should be moderate what with the ice melting and the tides shouldn't flood till Tuesday at the earliest, so my guess you should be fine.

Well if it is on the internet it must be true.

There is a graph and everything. Any idea when there will be a "flood sale" for Kiawah Island property ?

There will never be a “sale” on Kiawah. Rising tides will make for new ocean front property and since the “rising tides” eliminated the first row it will make the new oceanfront lots that more rare (i.e. Expensive)

The problem is caused by watering the grass
May 14, 2019, 11:18 AM
|

We keep pumping water out of the ground with all of these irrigation wells and pumping out water to water lawns, so the runoff goes into the rivers and oceans, which eventually rise above ground level. To correct it, we need to drill some return holes so the water goes back underground.

It's not too bad... most adults 6'+ are still able to keep their head above water while walking around the market. A well-made sweetgrass basket floats too so you can float around in one of those if you're under 6' and are rich.

Is this a serious question? If you are worried about being underwater I can either rent you my scuba gear or uber my boat to you.

I've heard from reputable sources that the world will end in 12 years, so why should it matter?

You know good & well that the GW problem (& all attendant thereto) will not be resolved until 90% of your income goes to taxes to pay for it.

And a Totalitarian Global Government. To solve global problems you need a global government with the power to make sure everyone does what they are supposed to and doesn’t do what they aren’t supposed to.
Then everything will be perfect. Pretty simple really. All we need to do is change human nature. Easy.

Redbreast are biting. I suggest the white beetle spin with a red dot on the belly along with a cricket. Putting the cricket on is critical.
Good luck!
