My first thought as well.
Researchers have made a dire prediction on the future of South Florida as climate change is rapidly taking over.
By Nicolas Garcia • Published September 26, 2023 • Updated on September 26, 2023 at 2:08 pm
Miami will be 60 percent under water by the year 2060, according to researchers. The main culprit: climate change.
Scientists at the University of Miami predict the Magic City has a little over 30 years before the water takes over.
The sea water is rising at a dramatic rate so much so insurance companies, like Farmers Insurance, are quiet-quitting the Sunshine State.
By 2040, sea levels are expected to be 10 to 17 inches higher than the levels in the year 2000, according to the Unified Sea Level Rise Projection for Southeast Florida Regional Climate Compact.
