My land in Newport NC is still 7 inches above sea level at high tide.

Climate Change Denier! Iconoclast! ..Unclean!

Yes- water seeks a level, worldwide- correct. That’s because water is not compressible. The oceans are vast of course and the amount of pack ice or polar ice needed to raise them worldwide even 4 or 5 inches is phenomenal, and impossible.
The other factor of course is the amount of evaporation worldwide into the atmosphere. This chick should try calculating that!

Ocean levels are at least six inches higher than they were a decade ago along a swathe of the country from Texas to North Carolina.

Someone moved the Professor's tide-measuring stick again, didn't they?

Sometimes I believe I must be living in a world replete with nitwits and liars. How can it be that the ocean rises more in one place more than the other? What absolute perversion of science and what sickness by “scientists” who are pathological liars.

“Galveston, Texas, was the worst hit in the Post’s research, jumping 8.4 inches in the past 14 years , which experts said was made worse by sinking land.”

So the tide’s not rising...the land is sinking. Globull warming nonsense at its best.

That’s a powerful data point. No one has moved Plymouth Rock and the rising sea has not overtaken it in 400 years!

Well, the Arizona Chinaman says it’s possible. I’d certainly give it a go if I were you.

Looking at the American South Seas . . .

Yes! There they are! The states from Texas to North Carolina, are now floating of the western coast line of South America!

“For some reason, the Plymouth Rock is exactly the same as it was in 1620... right on the water’s edge.”

Plymouth rock has been moved a few times

“. The rock has been broken, split, and relocated multiple times over the past two and a half centuries, Donna D. Curtin, executive director of the Pilgrim Hall Museum in Plymouth, wrote in an email to The Associated Press. Such instances include the rock possibly being raised from its original location in 1749 due to the construction of a wharf, the removal of its top portion in 1774, and later its excavation and relocation onto the shoreline in 1920”

Texas has subsidence due to ground water pumping of the Gulf Coast aquifer this is why that land is sinking faster eustatic sea level change is not the reason. That said the earth is in the tail end of an interglacial epoch and sealevels rise during interglacial eras sometimes by hundreds of feet as the glaciers on land melt nothing not natural about that.
