New tsunami risk for Hull as experts say ‘absolute worst case’ predictions weren’t bad enough
Hull has already been hit by tidal surges but climate change means it is at greater risk from huge wavesWith much of Hull lying below sea level and with the East Yorkshire coast eroding at an alarming rate the risk of more tsunamis is not good news.
The risk of the devastation caused by the huge waves is bigger than previously estimated because of climate change, according to new findings.
Tsunamis are destructive fast-moving waves that can be triggered by earthquakes, mountain slides, or meteor impacts.
But now because of sea-levels rising the risks for coastal communities around the world are growing, Plymouth Live reports.
OMG, this is horrible!
It is not clear if Hull has ever been affected by a tsunami throughout its history, but the city has been badly affected by tidal flooding.
So, it’s never happened going back thousands of years, but, a town that’s below sea level has been affected by flooding? Shocking!
But a new study by researchers suggests what was previously assumed to be the ‘absolute worst case’ regarding tsunamis now appears to be ‘modest’ for what is predicted in some locations.
The new findings show the likely increase of flooding would also move further inland than previously estimated from tsunamis following earthquakes.
Stop. Just stop.
For the study, Dr Weiss and his colleagues created computer-simulated tsunamis at current sea level and with sea-level increases of 1.5 feet and three feet in the Chinese territory of Macau.
You had me at “computer-simulated.” Not to be outdone, we have this from an Irish paper
Tsunamis will become more common and more ferocious with global warming, scientists warned after a study found that worldwide sea-level rises will increase the risk of coastal cities being wiped out.
Smaller earthquakes that currently pose no serious tsunami threat could unleash waves capable of decimating coastal cities.
It’s all about linking naturally occuring events to the Cult of Climastrology and predicting doom, yet, these same people won’t make their lives carbon neutral. Go figure.
Lt. Colonel Ralph Peters, former FOX military analyst who famously called President Obama a “big pussy” and harshly criticized Obama’s foreign policy, said this of tRump:
That’s what tRump wants his voters to believe – that can save them from diverse, liberal America – as he rewards the wealthy.
With all due respect, WTF does Ralph Peters have to do with tsunamis?
And why should anyone care what he says?
OMG, you’ve got us on the run today! Two errors in one day. The Peters quotes were intended for an IAYS post. Our abject apologies.
Why would anyone care if a conservative military advisor criticizes trump?
To us this is the most important point:
And true because trump has no real stake in America, being a global businessman.
Jeff,
I notice you did not provide the context for these remarks. I have read some of Peters books and consider him ok, but no one from whom I respect his opinions. Now, on Obama, he is hands down the worst president we have ever had. I am sure that 98% of all scientist would agree. There is a good book on this subject and would direct you there. But as to Trump, he is one of the best leaders we have ever had, MAGA.
Diverse?
You taken a good look at the leadership of the Democrat party?
Besides, Trump is busy saving the Rust Belt Democrat America Zippy left behind. Like the trade war he’s winning with Red China prompting US Steel to invest in renovating Gary IN’s old steel plant.
And the colonel, sad to say, has fallen in with the NeverTrump psychos. He’s even sounding like Andy Cuomo.
david7134:
What is your most relevant criticism of President Obama?
You’re entitled to your opinion, but you should recognize it’s a minority position. We suspect 98% of scientists think trump is a bad president. We know a trump voter, a PhD chemist, who now dislikes trump as much as he dislikes Hillary.
The Peters’ quotes were from an interview with Ari Melber.
Hmmm, where to start…
http://thefederalist.com/2018/06/14/ig-report-shows-obama-lied-when-he-said-he-knew-nothing-about-hillarys-secret-e-mail-scheme/
You’re quoting Zippy, the Magic Negro, who’s being made to look more like a fool every day because all the things he said couldn’t be done, are being done by Trump?
Oh, yes, it is to laugh.
What exactly has tRump accomplished? James Buchanan is smiling in his grave, now being only the 2nd WORST President in history. tRump will be the first ex-President to go to prison.
It is to laugh.
Best answer so far:
Besides living rent free inside a certain nignorant angry little black fella’s head he’s made sure that Hillary Clinton will never be President of the United States of America.
Ever.
Jeff,
Read the book, list over 200 failures.
President Obama may have not told the truth to the media??? Unheard of!
Did you read the 500+ IG report? Did you see the recommendations regarding Secretary Clinton’s email server? There weren’t any. No “Lock her up!”, nothing.
There was no evidence uncovered that the FBI hid anything, that anyone involved had intent, nothing. They concluded that Comey should have been quiet and that AG Lynch should have been more involved.
Nothing on Obama or Clinton conspiring with an enemy government to bugger the US electoral system.dave – Who wrote the book you’re recommending?
Is this really your most serious complaint against President Obama?
Little Jeffery doesn’t want to hear his Mocha Messiah was all over FISA, F&F, the witch hunt…
The IG Report, by universal acclimation, was a CYA on the surface. Howe’er, once you got into it, we’ve seen a lot of ugly stuff.
Too bad little Jeffery doesn’t read what his trollmasters tell him to type.
ZOMG! Secretary Clinton used a personal server! She even sent emails to then President Obama!! Treason!! Lock her up!! Lock her up!!
Some FBI agents don’t like tRump. They’re in good company, as 60% of all Americans don’t either.
When will tRump send his DOJ after Clinton and Obama? Why hasn’t he? Deep State?
Hang both the traitors.
Along with John Brennan.
Would you have a trial first, or just go straight to hanging?
Give ’em a fair trial then hang ’em.
Why won’t Trump go after them, since they are traitors? Maybe his own DOJ has no respect for him. A tRump dictatorship would just be more effective, wouldn’t it?
Jeff,
Have you a whole book on the worst president in history and you can’t even look it up. Do you even read?
david7134,
We found your book. It’s free from Amazon. We’re not surprised that you’re impressed. It looks like a rushed-out hackjob to make a few bucks from right-wingers.
We suggest David Cay Johnston’s “It’s Even Worse Than You Think: What the Trump Administration is Doing to America”. Johnston is a Pulitzer Prize winning journalist with expertise in tax law and economics, and has known Trump for 30 years. In 2016 he wrote “The Making of Donald Trump”, which you also might find instructive. Enjoy.
How times have changed…
All the way back in 1986..
Today, foreign governments pay millions to Trump Inc. to curry the president’s favor. The Trump Hotel in the Old Post Office raked in millions in 2017 after projecting losses prior to the election.

Jeff,
Looked over the book and totally agree that Trump is changing the government for the best. Glad to have my thoughts verified by a Trump observer. MAGA.
Jeff,
I could not find the Obama book for free. If I could I would pass it on to the people who can’t afford it thanks to the corruption of the shoe shine boy.
david7134,
You must not buy enough books from Amazon. Not surprised.
Why use euphemisms for Obama, just call him a n*gg*r like you do in private.
Speaking of corruption, have you been reading about tRump, the US mob and the Russian mob?
Recall that Mr. Mueller can pursue any criminal activity he discovers. tRump was laundering money for Putin’s Russian oligarchs. The catch is whether a sitting President can be indicted. He’s working a deal to resign and NOT get prosecuted. President Pence will pardon him anyway.
