I legit "can" see my house from there. Obviously can't see the house itself, but can find where it is.

That 2100 projection is wrong. The Atchafalaya delta is building land not losing.

It's more about the project increases in sea-level rise overcoming the deltaic processes of land building that far out.

Cant be right. The Miss. River is still running the same course in 2100. I though it was projected to reroute to the Atchafalaya next year.

There are hundreds of these examples on the web pick one you believe. Or, ignore them.

Let the River run down the Atchafalaya like it wants to and things change there, but BR and Nola are then screwed with salt water intrusion. Nola probably regardless.

I had my time in the glory days of easy inshore speck and flounder fishing, my kids and grandkids won't ever see anything like that on a regular basis like we did.

Politicians only care about the next election. I doubt that anything meaningful ever gets done to fix this, or really if by now there's anything that could be done.

Mr LSU - sorry, didn't mean to highjack your thread. I'm a map nerd and love sat photos.

They have 5 dredges on the river now dumping sand building back the land. Those images don't show any of that.
