It looks like Bruce and his pals better keep their guitars tuned up. We might need another concert.
San Fran Sicko has needed a good hosing down for a long time.
If the fault line shifts and dips all of SF in the bay permanently can we say it was glo-bull warming?

Without a hint of global warming, this would be one hell of a high tide. With global warming it will be about an inch higher.
If she’s really committed, Susan should go down on the shore and hold those big tides back to prevent them hitting San Fransissysko.
If the tide would rise about 300 feet along the California coast, things would improve.
I remember reading a story a few yrs back from this same paper, which cited 2 studies of the effects of global warming on California. One study said increased flooding and the other said increased droughts. Of course, the writer never bothered to question this obvious contradiction.
Same high tides in John Wayne’s Balboa Bay and Dana Rohrabacher’s Huntington Harbour, in the OC, a Red County.
There is an paved underwater road that leads out into SF Bay perpendicular to Alameda Beach at the Park. I recall this road was flooded over in 1930`s ?? If so then SF global warming is 70 years too late.
The only solution left is for her to stop expelling CO2 from her lungs.
So this rare tide comes, the sea level goes up 9 feet more than average, and a couple parking lots are flooded. So lets spend trillions to fight off a couple inches of sea level rise from “global warming.”. how about we just pave a few more parking lots and move on.
If they happen (in the same way) every year, then there's no evidence that the seas are rising.
This is ridiculous!
I would surmise that the areas flooded by these tides are the areas filled in with the wreckage resulting from the 1906 earthquake. The bayshore areas around the City of San Francisco are all the result of fill dumped into the bay.
A similiar story for Astoria, Oregon. The original rivershore is now distant from the Columbia River. The City of Astoria (incorporated in 1812), experienced a fire and much of the wreckage was dumped along the river as fill.
US Hwy.30, where it passes through Astoria, Oregon, is built on that rivershore fill.
Susan Schwartz already drives a Prius and has solar panels on her home. But the 69-year-old Berkeley woman still doesn’t think she’s doing enough to stop global warming.
