(How fast do you think the waters are rising?  It is going to be slow and gradual over many days.  By the way, it's "Bath," not Baths.  It is called the City of Ships because, at one time, it was a major shipbuilding city, and still has one major shipyard that builds naval ships.)

[Auir]

(I don't know, but if it already risen 3 feet then the ships in the harbors would be affected along with shoreline buildings. If you mean 3 feet a day, then it might have risen a bit more. Maybe a couple millimeters or two.)

[paladin313]

(I was saying that the water had crept three feet past the normal high tide line.)

[Auir]

(That map showed where 3 feet of water would reach.)

[paladin313]

(Okay, maybe I went to far.  I just wanted to show there was a change without significant damage yet.)

[Auir]

(x<or=to 1 feet would be alarming but without significant damage.)

[paladin313]

(Check...  So things wouldn't be too bad.  Here's some info on the town...)

[Auir]

(I was doing a brief geographic research on it.)

[paladin313]

(that link will get you familiar with the town.)

[Auir]

(I now know... Its' history and census?)

[paladin313]

(What else would you like to know?)

[Auir]

(I think I know enough.)

As they came up river, they came to a 90 degree bend, went on for about 500 yard, and then turned back again 90 degrees.  There was a small lighthouse on the second bend about 12 feet tall, but looked like a full-sized lighthouse, and he said, "That's Doubling Point Light."

[Trace Carter]

"Does it still work?" asked Z

[paladin313]

"Oh yes," he said, "It's a Coast Guard ran official lighthouse because of this bend in the river."
