King Tide Saturday October 15th Dinner Key, Coconut Grove. By Geniusofdespair

They expect a 3 foot height of high tide during this King Tide (Sunday and Monday). This is at 2'.8" today, Saturday, at Dinner Key in Coconut Grove. I took these photos at about 9:30 A.M - High Tide. Normal tides are 2.1 to 2.5 inches. What a difference just 3 inches can make! And they expect 4" more?

CG Marina has 3 docks. All 3 are underwater. They are between Scotty's and City Hall.

CG Marina still operating during King Tide - dock #2

Border of Peacock Park -- Home. You can see the water has been even higher. Looking towards the harbor.

Grove Isle: The two is almost submerged on the seawall.

Docks need to be floating with pile rollers. Seawall all need to be raised and concrete grout injected all around the seawall area. This is pure negligence by the owners which happens to be the city. I'm surprised people still are using fixed docks. Everybody must be broke. Absolute failure to improve infrastructure.

Excellent pictures to help explain to the 'deniers' that the water is not coming over the sand dunes but through the porous rock via aquifer.

What climate change? It's all a hoax by the dems.
