Via City of Malibu:
"The National Weather Service has issued a Coastal Flood Warning for Los Angeles County that will be in effect from now through 3pm Sunday afternoon. The periods between 6 am and noon on Saturday and Sunday have the highest risk. The upgrade to a "Warning" highlights the increased risk for damage due to coastal flooding.
The areas of most concern include Long Beach, Avalon, and Malibu.
While south-facing shores have the greatest risk, minor coastal flooding is also possible for west facing shores.
High tides peak Sat-Sun at 7.3-7.6 feet between 9am and 10am, with surf of 4-7 feet.
Sunday morning has the widest range of outcomes due to light to moderate rain, wind, low pressure tidal enhancements, and swells coming from multiple directions. Coastal flooding impacts on Sunday could be similar to today, but they also could be greatly enhanced. While any flooding directly connected to the rain is expected to be minor, accumulating rain could make sea water drainage more challenging for low-lying areas.
Coastal flooding risks will continue through Tuesday or Wednesday, but lower in severity after Sunday.
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
Stay off of beaches and coastal walkways, roads, and structures.
Do NOT drive around barricades or through water of unknown depth.
Heed advice from local officials.Remain out of the water due to dangerous surf conditions, or stay
near occupied lifeguard towers. Rock jetties can be deadly in
such conditions, stay off the rocks." -

Sea level rise threatens more than a quarter of a million properties as bill surges to $855b
"Climate change means Australia's love of the coast is facing a multi-billion-dollar reckoning, research suggests, as rising seas threaten to turn its prized coastal lifestyle into a question of who will foot the bill: property owners or governments."
"Australia could face damage costs of more than $850 billion, with more than $274 billion going to property losses and $580 billion spent on land-use damage."
"We keep warming the planet … so you get more sea level rise, you get higher tides, higher king tides, higher maximum tides," the professor of environmental economics and biosecurity at the University of Melbourne said." >>

As Australia’s sea levels rise, safe land is vanishing and costs are huge
"Climate Council forecasts more than 267,000 coastal properties will be damaged by flooding by 2100, costing hundreds of billions of dollars."
"Kompas said the costs – an estimated $274.3bn in property losses and $580.7bn in land use damages – were a conservative estimate and did not take into account the additional impacts of coastal erosion or significant ice sheet melt."
"Kompas said that while reducing greenhouse gas emissions to limit global heating was of paramount importance, “we have to start planning and responding and adapting now. The first thing, of course, is not to build on flood plains, which is common still.” >>

Quantifying UK Coastal Flood Exposure Under Future Sea-Level Rise To [2100 and] 2300

“🌊 New research on long-term coastal flooding as a result of climate inaction 🌊
… The researchers found:
🔷 By 2100 at least an additional 0.5 million people exposed to the 1-in-200 year undefended flood extent - a 25% increase compared to present day.
🔷 Under the most pessimistic storyline by 2300 involving significant ice-sheet instability, an additional 13 million people could be exposed to the 1-in-200 year undefended flood event.

“Up to 13 million people in the UK face the long-term risk of coastal flooding due to the climate crisis, scientists have warned, with a ‘reasonable worst-case scenario’ suggesting the need for the large-scale movement of populations away from a dramatically reshaped coast…
Sea level has risen by about 20cm around the UK in the last century and is accelerating. A further 40cm to 60cm by 2100 is already baked in, meaning about half a million more people will be at risk of their homes being flooded, on top of the 2.5 million already in danger near the coasts. Lincolnshire and the Humber estuary are most in danger…”

“The latest Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change assessment report highlighted the potential for more than 15 metres of global sea-level rise by 2300. In this study, [the authors] explore the implications for UK coastal flood exposure by combining national-scale flood modelling with physically-based storylines of UK sea-level rise. By 2100 all storylines show broadly similar results with at least an additional ½ million people exposed to the 1-in-200 year undefended flood extent, which represents a 25% increase compared to present day. Under the most pessimistic storyline by 2300 involving significant ice-sheet instability, an additional 13 million people could be exposed to the 1-in-200 year undefended flood event. This would imply the potential need for large-scale movement of populations and settlements away from the coast in the coming centuries. Given current global emissions pledges, exposure increases by 1.7 million people by 2300, however up to 1 million could be avoided if Paris Agreement targets for greenhouse gas emissions are met…”

#ExtremeWeather events to become more frequent in #Ireland
By Eithne Dodd
Updated / Monday, 29 Dec 2025"2025 was the year climate scientists agreed it would be impossible to limit global warming to 1.5C above pre-industrial levels.
"The target was agreed by world leaders back in 2015.
"This means a certain amount of damage to the Earth's environment due to human-induced climate change is irreversible.
"In Ireland, several reports this year found that the state of the country's environment was getting worse.
"#MetÉireann climatologist Paul Moore explained that as Ireland warms, extreme weather events will become more frequent.
"Mr Moore told RTÉ’s This Week that sea level rise is 'locked in', even if global warming was limited to 1.5C.
" 'That means when we get an #ExtremeRainfall event and #HighTides or #SpringTides together, we have compound events where you get #TidalLock, you get #CoastalFlooding as well as the rainfall and not being able to run out into the sea,' he said.
"Mr Moore added: 'So those compound events where sea level rise will come in conjunction with storms and heavy rainfall events causing more impacts.
" 'That's something that's definitely going to increase.'
"There has been a 0.2 metre rise in the sea level off the Irish coast between 1901 and 2018.
"The National Climate Change Risk Assessment identified 115 risks for Ireland in a warming world, among them were coastal flooding, #erosion and #ExtremeWinds."

'#WickedHighTide:' Days of #CoastalFlooding in #NortheastUS not over yet
Streets were underwater and people had to slosh through sunken sidewalks as coastal flooding inundated parts of the Northeast since Thursday, and it's not over yet.

Published Sep 23, 2024"A local environmental group in #Boston, #StoneLivingLab, posted signs in the water directing onlookers to its website, which said, 'Wicked High Tides are back! These annual tides are 2-4 feet higher than normal and give us a window into how sea level rise will soon affect our daily lives.'"

Disruptive flooding of critical infrastructure assets to become 'routine'.
"Critical infrastructure includes buildings and facilities that provide functions necessary to sustain daily life – or that if flooded, could unleash environmental hazards. The full impact of #CoastalFlooding is likely to be significantly worse, as drinking #water facilities, bus and metro stations, and retirement and care facilities for older adults were not included in the UCS study."

#LD2266: Sand dunes and #SearsIsland wind terminal
Lawmakers changed course and cleared a major hurdle for the development of an offshore wind terminal on Sears Island with the approval of L.D. 2266, which exempts the site from rules governing development on sand dunes
by Emmett Gartner
April 27, 2024"Like this bill, Gov. Janet Mills’ selected location for a windmill assembly and transportation hub received intense scrutiny from some environmentalists, local residents and tribal members.
"They said the location and exemptions will degrade Sears Island’s sand dune habitat and defenses against #CoastalFlooding, arguing the port should be constructed at nearby #MackPoint, which was also up for consideration."
