I guess subsidence is outside the remit of "science".

Tell me about this subsidy you speak of. As the owner of two homes I have felt I have been hit really hard on the cost of insurance. Fortunately We no longer own the vacation home which would cost between eight and eleven THOUSAND dollars per year for flood insurance if we had a mortgage! According to the elevation certificate if the first level were eight inches higher the flood insurance would cost just a few hundred dollars per year. Just home owners and windstorm insurance cost over three thousand per year. It's about risk or so they claim! Maybe you don't own property but have read about how unfair subsidies benefit the Wealthy, whoever they are! What constitutes Wealthy today?

Global warming and the fudge they have gone to of Climate change is junk science. These so call experts you believe have a financial stake in supporting it. The Farmers Almanac does a better job of predicting the weather than the National Weather Service. Flood waters have always had a path to lower levels such as coasts and rivers but we have interfered by building where we shouldn't. Water always seeks its own level and will find a path around or through populated areas depending on developments.

There is flooding in NC.  There have been some deaths. Which is always sad.

Some of the Newscastors have had their OMG moments.

A little comic relief -

The Weather Channel




Anderson Cooper CNN - standing in a drain.





I'm not sure why they felt the need to over-egg the pudding.
