My buddy has a house on one of the inlets to Tampa Bay. He shows me pictures from 20 years ago where, at high tide, his boat dock rested just at or slightly above the concrete pier.
Now, it’s 2 or 3 steps down from the pier to the dock - a good 2 feet. No dredging or any modifications have been done, to his knowledge since then.
Where did all the water go???
Ah, The Marshall Islands.
He’ll be glad to know this when I tell him.
I read that a guy had an old family photo showing a gnarled tree a few feet from the beach in either Marshall Islands or Vanuatu.
He went looking for the tree and found it, approximately at the same distance from the water.
Excited, he came back to the hotel and talked about it. In the hotel there was a professor of something, but a believer of the global warming cult.
He went back the following day with friends to take pictures, but the tree had bee uprooted, gone. Later he found out the professor nutcase ripped off the small tree because it clashed with his world view.
Sickening.
