   “Tide gauges and satellites both show no sea level rise in California for decades.”

   That’s why this study by Gleick was “needed.” And Scott Mandia is a tool.

     A tool with super powers……..I mean hip boots and a hockey stick.

   Tide gauges show about 0.7 mm/yr sea level rise for the California coast.

     Since 1980, they show none.

       I do hate it when I make stupid errors such as forgetting the dollar sign “$” for denoting absolute values on a simple Excel spreadsheet.

       You’re right, I picked 8 representative tide gauge stations north to south down the California coast and averaged up the slope and when I do it right, it comes out to minus -0.04 mm/yr.

         Satellites show the same thing.

   Steve, Steve Steve, you haven’t adjusted for the PDO, the last few La Nina’s, then it has to be GIA corrected, and you should then smooth out the last couple of decades using a carefully selected start and end point. Once you do that, you’ll see that we’re all doomed. Gleick is prophet.

   Steve, that was an excellent reply to the climate kook!

     My favorite is the crooks at Scripps in La Jolla whining about sea level rise. They can see The Cove out their window – where there has been no change in sea level for 140 years.
