New paper out shows levee construction ~ 62% acceleration in floodplain expansion contig US. BUT effect weakens over time due to land use regulations. Nicely sums both the concerns of levee building AND the power of land use.

Controlled burn to demolish one of the last homes on the street in #flood #buyout. House built in '50s as summer cottage. Saw 4 generations. Bought out after repeat floods. Owner "would rebuild in a heartbeat" if allowed. Only 3 of 63 homes on street remain.
