More Nor'easters on the way

<snip>


The rugged coast of New England has never recorded a one-two high-water punch like it’s gotten this winter with the nor’easters dubbed Grayson (January 4) and Riley (March 2-3). These storms produced two of the three highest water levels ever measured in Boston Harbor, and both of them produced widespread damage along the Massachusetts coast, with many water rescues carried out. Nearly a million people along the East Coast remained without power on Monday, reported weather.com.

At least two more nor’easters are in the pipeline for New England, one later this week and another early next week. Neither of these should be on par with Grayson and Riley in their coastal effects, but they will prolong the misery and delay recovery efforts for thousands of residents along and near the shore.

Climate change is real

1. As a native Floridian, I could give a shit about homes built on the shore

You build knowing this will/can happen.

People inshore are a different story. I feel for them.

3. +1,000

We understand the nature of hurricanes and the power of oceans and seas.

Our "homes built on the shore" significantly pre-date any notion of permanently rising seas.

a little pity maybe?

6. Of course. Different circumstances. I'm referring to the pic in the OP

2. The arrogant ignorance of climate change deniers is mind boggling.

7. Great photo. Building expensive houses on sand spits

has never seemed to be a good idea to me, somehow.
