In the U.S., coastal floods now happen three times more often than they did 30 years ago, and the frequency and intensity of coastal flooding are projected to increase into the future. By 2050, floods are expected to happen 10 times more often than they do today.

Climate Central’s Coastal Risk Finder provides maps and analysis of the people, homes, and land projected to be at risk from worsening coastal flooding.

Interesting channel. They talk about solar power and how it replaces coal power, and what that means for climate warming until 2100.

Spoiler: The "business as usual" climate model significantly overestimates climate warming until 2100, and it will probably be much much less severe.
