Lou Gehrig was a baseball player; not a doctor. He didn’t describe or diagnose Lou Gehrig’s Disease; he was diagnosed with it.The person that described/ diagnosed it first......
We have a problem here as the rivers and streams empty into the bays. Many of the bays, although quite large, have relatively small passes into the open Gulf of Mexico so they sometimes back up onto the mainland side shores as well.We have had two continuous days of rain, most rivers just barely hold. But the other bane here has realized, the Baltic has decided to invade several coastal towns including Helsinki. It is wind driven seawater rise, can be quite significant, I have seen it up 2.2 m and down 1.5m. At the moment the highest seems to be up 1.35m.
Just to name a few to you:Lou Gehrig was a baseball player; not a doctor. He didn’t describe or diagnose Lou Gehrig’s Disease; he was diagnosed with it.

there is a line and date on the front door of every flood , it brings the history to life when you are standing looking at flood levels to the top of the door.Here we can get sea water flooding during bad hurricanes.
Grand Cayman virtually was under the sea level during Hurricane Ivan.
We now build our houses above that max level.
Garages are naturally below that.
I got a ‘flood plank’ system I still need to install.
I am a lazy optimist.
That beautiful old pub in post 1 should have a such system installed.
Plus a brass plaque on the outside that show the max level. A great conversation piece!
