Yale Environment 360: By 2030, residents of Washington, D.C., and Annapolis, Maryland, could be experiencing more than 150 tidal floods every year -- up from an average of just 50 today -- according to a recent study of sea level rise and coastal flood risk along the U.S. East Coast by the Union of Concerned Scientists. In another 15 years, that number could jump to 400 floods annually, the study says.

U.S. East Coast Cities Face Frequent Flooding Due to Climate Change
2014-10-08 06:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Guardian: Dozens of Americas east coast cities face routine tidal flooding under climate change, researchers said on Wednesday. Miami where the habitues of South Beach are used to sloshing through water at high tide will deploy new pumps this week to hold back the waters of the King Tides, the highest annual high tides, which are projected to crest at 3.5 feet (1.07m).
