Remember those scary reports just a few months ago when Tim Flannery and his gang were predicting the very wet future that lies ahead for coastal communities? Sea levels are rising faster than ever and by 2100 they will be over 1m higher due to climate change.

Well it appears that we are going to have to work a lot harder than we thought to reach that goal. Their predictions were based on the "models" which have a strange consistency in not predicitng anything useful but continue to demand loyalty from this followers.

In the real world of real data, the sea levels are not rising faster but are actually slowing down in their rate of increase.

Here is a graph of tidal information at various locations around Australia and New Zealand.

Sea levels are increasing but in the last couple of years the rate has slowed down.
