It will be much larger than that. Waves slow and build as they approach land. If we’re seeing 12” in the open ocean, those are big waves and huge tide changes on land.

I can’t find any bouy data, so I have no basis to say anything is actually wrong with the warnings… but ‘yards’? For real?

Anyway, I’m a bit concerned some incompetent moron reading open ocean wave bouy data showing a 12” wave is thinking that means a 12” wave is what will show up on the beach.

Gen X already gave up on social security… we’ll be happy if nothing changes and we get 80% of our ‘promised’ benefits. By the time the old people in congress ‘fix’ it, we’ll get even less and they’ll just take more.

This is why Medicare needs to be cut. Benefits keep growing for people who are no longer paying in. The burden keeps shifting to the next generation, and it needs to stop.

Seniors got us into this mess, this is the natural consequence.
