Well, it looks like about 100 years from now both places I currently call home will be under water. Soo long Long Beach and Seista Key. Pretty scarey that Wall Street is predicted to be under water. And do not forget LGA. Looks like this may be a sea plane base again in a centruy as well.

warmer waters expanding - is expected to cause oceans to rise by one meterSorry if I sound stupid, but the water all around the Battery Park area is more than a meter below walking ground on the shore.At the southern tip of Manhattan, sea water would inundate Battery Park City, now home to 9,000 people. Storm surges could wipe out tens of thousands of homes in Brooklyn and Long Island.

Oh here we go with another global warming post....
glad you posted that pic tommy. is that one real or just a good ps job?
it is mathematically impossible for either hummingbirds, or helicopters to fly. fortunately, neither are aware of this.
It is real
The three most common expressions in aviation are, "Why is it doing that?", "Where are we?" and "Oh Crap".
Key paragraph:
"We're going to get a meter and there's nothing we can do about it," said University of Victoria climatologist Andrew Weaver, a lead author of the February report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change in Paris. "It's going to happen no matter what - the question is when."
Go ahead and hand your money over to "green" causes. But once Mother Nature makes a decision there's no turning back. She doesn't listen to pompous asses like Al Gore and Leo DiCaprio, she doesn't accept checks and she doesn't care if you drive a Prius.
As for lower Manhattan, Battery Park itself might be okay, but the property west of West Street on which Battery Park City and the World Financial Center stand is not natural land, but landfill made of the dirt and rocks excavated during construction of the World Trade Center. So there's a good chance that it could liquefy and fall into the River in the event the sea rises, or even a hurricane or an earthquake.
Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We have a small problem.
All four engines have stopped. We are doing our damnedest to get them under control.
I trust you are not in too much distress. —Captain Eric Moody, British Airways Flight 9
