Ouch, that has not been mentioned but is a real life situation. So much
of our produce and some of our seafood comes from that area. You have
the loss of the growing crop, but there will be buildings and equipment
damage to pay for.

It's a concern, for sure. The main supermarket I frequent is Publix and
they are based out of Florida. So are most of their
warehouse/distribution centers.

We already have that in CA due to drought and floods, it should be something
by the time all the disasters weigh in.

If palm trees are getting uprooted I imagine that citrus groves will
be as well. However, storm surge with salty, sandy water running over
growing fields is really bad. And, as you pointed out there will be
hundreds of acres of "glass houses" that are gone. Couple this
damage with lesser produce coming from Mexico and a migrant worker
shortage, it spells higher cost.
What has amazed me, is the temperature of the water in the Gulf --
90F? What the heck kind of fish and sea life likes water that
temperature?

Not as much as before.

Even CA's Central Valley, which usta supply one third of the USA's
produce, has been hard hit by produce from C/S. America. Even before
CA's drought probs, produce from Chile and Mexico were hitting Cali
producers quite hard. 8|

Did you know that most pet food is full of bull penises and
uncleaned/unemptied bovine bowels?

those temps are high. They used to be concerned when the temps went
into the 80s.

Good. Otherwise we'd have stacks of bull penises in the meat case at
the market. Too big to fit in most pots and pans.

I would think so. I suppose much of it is small, incremental creep.
Here are some averages.

I doubt many do. That said, if you've ever swam in a lake, bay or
ocean, you don't have to dive very deep before the water temp
drops quickly. That 90F is surface temperature. In that case,
fish will go deeper to hang out and bottom dwellers will move
offshore a bit to deeper water. Oysters are stuck where they are
and just have to tough it out.

We have very diverse wild life on the planet. Those critters aren't tied
down to a house and a job so, in theory, they are free to come and go as
they please, so that makes you wonder why some of them live where they
do. There are species of seals that live in the polar regions. Musk oxen
live in the far north. Polar bears are related close enough that they
can cross breed, but the polar bears stay in the north.

LOL@! No you won't.
I've mentioned this here before. When I was a young kid, we had a
collie dog. He had dry food available but each evening I fed him
a can of KenLRation. Each day as I opened the can, that odor
smelled so darn good to me...and the dog absolutely loved it and
wolfed it down in no time.

so one day, I took a taste of it. OH YUK!!!!! ;-o I was
shocked. How can something that smells so good taste so bad? The
dog even growled at me momentarily when he saw me tasting HIS
dinner. LOL.

They should start making it from all the feral dogs that you want
to kill off in your area. That would be a win-win situation. No?

that was my point. If there are fishermen earning their living from
the sea, they will have to travel much farther to make their
particular catch. If the catch still wants to live in the general
area and hasn't gone away entirely. Watch any wild life program
