Yahoo Finance and Yahoo News will be reporting from COP26, which is set to begin on October 31 and last until November 12 in Glasgow, Scotland. And a higher prevalence of flooding not only displaces residents, but also incurs high economic costs to rebuild. The risks that coastal communities face include threats of 'sunny day flooding' and storm surges that will be both more frequent and more extreme. Too many human beings living on the coast right now are exposed to just exorbitant amounts of climate risk.вЂќ

вЂњAnd I think what we need to do is actually proactively set up areas with affordable housing before the real estate market catches up and kind of fully understands the risk on the coast. вЂњWe do need to back away from the coast,вЂќ Christian Braneon, a climate scientist at NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies, said at Yahoo Finance's All Markets Summit (video above).

Thirteen of the 20 times Fort Pulaski has recorded a tide of 10 feet (3.05 meters) have happened since 2015, including twice during this monthвЂ™s event, the weather service said.Д¬harleston Harbor has recorded 25 of the 39 tides of 8 feet (2.44 meters) or greater since 2015. Rising sea levels is leading to more frequent flooding, meteorologists said. SundayвЂ™s high tides were the culmination of four days of rising ocean water pushed ashore by both winds from a strong autumn storm offshore and periodic King Tides when the moonвЂ™s location causes the water level to increase. The high water closed dozens of roads in downtown and caused the city to cancel its Veterans Day parade scheduled for Saturday. The Sunday high tide in Charleston Harbor reached 8.51 feet (2.59 meters), which is the 10th highest level in the century of recording at that site, the weather service said.

Highway 80 from Savannah to Tybee Island, officials said. The water shut down several roads, including U.S. The other three higher levels happened in tropical storms or hurricanes including the record of 12.56 feet (3.83 meters) in Hurricane Matthew in October 2016. It was the fourth-highest tide in the 85 years the gauge has been in place. Sunday morningвЂ™s high tide reached 10.45 feet (3.19 meters) at Fort Pulaski, just east of Savannah, Georgia, the National Weather Service reported. Scientists have said data shows the unusually high tides and the flooding of roads that come with it is happening more frequently as sea levels rise with global warming. (AP) - A strong storm off the Southeast coast combined with periodic higher tides Sunday, causing coastal flooding that approached levels rarely seen outside of hurricanes along the South Carolina and Georgia coasts, officials said.
