San Francisco Set to Sizzle Soon


In August I wrote a global warming piece for this blog titled The 42 Islands of San Francisco. In it I discuss the impact on San Francisco of a sea level 21-feet higher than it is today.

My, my! How things can change from August to October. The predictions made in the August story are not only coming true ... the news is even worse!


This morning while reading my RSS feed from NASA's Earth Observatory I was faced with little jolt. The news is dramatic! Here are the headlines as I found them and links to the appropriate stories.
