Well, if we see palm trees in the Arctic, Ocean Pines will be under many feet of water, along with virtually every city at current tidewater locations, including Baltimore, New York, Miami, etc. There will be no Delmarva Peninsula dry land.
On the other hand, if the cold sets in, look for the Chesapeake Bay to disappear, the Susquehanna River to free-flow to the Baltimore Canyon and end in a 3000 foot waterfall into the ocean. Ocean City will be 60 miles or so from any ocean. Either way, I an certain some internet expert has the answer and folks on this forum will find and quote him extensively. |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: YES We need to be thinking globally when examining temps. And also need to be thinking over the eons of scientific discoveries. Here's a copy of message about evidence of palm trees found in the Arctic circle and in Alaska. Such major swings in hot climates totally eclipse what others have posted about NOAA's rather small temp variations. Estimated temps were 25 F degrees higher than in the 1960's. Msg 1189639 back in July: Here's two reports about evidence of palm trees growing in the Arctic and in Alaska millions of years ago. A 2009 report describes finding palm tree pollen within the Arctic circle. The Arctic would have looked very similar to the vegetation we now see in Florida. The science implies that coldest month mean temperatures over the Arctic land masses were no less than 8 Celsius” (46.40F) A 2015 report describes a fossil of a palm tree frond (leaf) discovered in Alaska. Its estimated to be from the Jurassic era from 145 to 200 million yrs ago. U.S. Forest Service geologist Jim Baichtal said: "the earth was around 14 degrees Celsius (around 25 degrees Fahrenheit) higher than average 1960s temperatures, he said. In this case, the climate was so warm that there were palm trees in very far north latitudes. Both are evidence that current temperatures are now extremely cooler than earlier times in history. 2023 was NOT the hottest summer in history. Palm leaf fossil: |
