That migration has begun already on the US gulf coast--thousands have moved inland and out of state as a result of this last hurricane season. Satellite photos show the ocean moving inland as protective wetlands are eroded by the rising saltwater--
the pressure of increased traffic and crush of bigger populations in communities that doubled in a few days has made for frazzled nerves--
