Yesterday and today, we experienced a “King Tide,” which flooded many places in the BayArea. Here is the article that was featured in today’s San Francisco Chronicle. The article points out that while King Tides are not caused by global climate change, the Tides do give us a sobering example of what is going to happen as the seas keep rising into the future.
The King Tide hit us at 11:00 this morning and flooded part of the trusty path along the bay that my dog and I walk just about every day. I’m including some pictures that I took. One thing for sure, when the seas rise (for whatever reason) there is no stopping them. The world had better wise up or resign itself to getting smaller -- literally!
The spot we enter the path from the house
Looking back after skirting some of the flood
Farther down the path. Getting a bit deep here
Even farther down the path. Note the Bay Bridge and the City across the bay
