the whole world is being washed away
Mm. Watch property prices on mountainsides skyrocket.

ya our whole road is gone
People on the south shore of Long Island (Babylon and several dozen other towns) have been watching the Atlantic Ocean slowly encroach onto their expensive waterfront property for man years now. It’s always scary to live right on the edge of the water, especially open ocean (even the north shore, which is Long Island Sound). But the homes in the picture above are not directly facing the ocean, it’s relatively shallow water doing that!
Meanwhile, here in Sacramento our levvies are worse than those in New Orleans. Looks like we’re going to make it through this winter season without the “wrong” combination of storms and heavy rains…
ya old orachard beach pier is taking 25 foot waves and its gonn die
Hmm, the whole world?
I google-newsed it and all the hits are for America(except for a ruined wetland in Oz).
Maybe I’m doing it wrong.
It looks like hell is freezing over here in NY. It’s not quite snowing, not quite raining…it’s slushing. There is just heavy chunks of slush falling from the sky. It’s terrible…gets your feet all wet.
If people would just realize that marriage is between a man and a woman we wouldn’t be having these troubles.
he he
Flooding?
haha i don’t live by the ocean i live in michigan
o shoot im surrounded by water on 3 sides.
Your state has more miles of coastline than any of the continental 48, including my large CA!
Pretty sure Maine has that record. (Could be wrong though…) I’m still at school currently, but from what i’ve heard of home tons of people have power out and there are trees down everywhere. I think our basement is flooded a bit too. The Loaf is getting snow though…
In the last 48 hours, Sugarloaf has gotten over 36" of snow. My basement at home has about 10" of water in it. Places in Southern Maine recorded up to 7" of rain… yeah, there has been some flooding.
wrong, maine
“3,200 miles of shoreline, the longest of any state but Alaska” – found near the bottom of the page. Some of these listings may be based on “ocean waterfront” or other narrowing factors. Michigan is a little weak on the saltwater but if you look at a map, it seems pretty obvious which one has more miles of water around the edges…
In my search I also read that Florida had the longest coastline as well (not counting Alaska). Now I guess we can have a battle of sources if we want…

etc. All the above specify freshwater, which makes it more difficult to compare.
This reminds me of back in the early nineties when the Mississippi River reached record highs around St. Louis and flooded many communities. A local preacher said it was because of all the gambling riverboats on the Mississippi. Not quite sure of his logic since the riverboats all floated around safely while the houses, churches, synagogues, mosques and temples were flooded or destroyed.

This is what I was basing my statement on. It says: 3,500 miles…
Hmmm. Looks like Maine has the longest coastline (it’s really convoluted!) and Michigan has the longest shoreline, or “freshwater shorline.”
Clear as mud.
All that is necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing.
