that's a sign of the swell somewhere out at sea...

A lot of comments here look like reddit comments :/ "how is this a conspiracy??". Because if the poster believes it's unusual, let them fucking post it. This is how we stay informed.

why is no one talking about Sharknado?

Oh my goodness wow must be pretty scary being there.

I have heard of this happening but never seen it.

Oh it was Kirsty Ally douching her gash while on vacay.

You know how house in Texas are submerged in several feet of water? Where do you think the water came from? It's hardly a conspiracy, the water is coming back already according to other comments

Nana66

They need all that water to throw at Florida...

Great time for metal detecting....

KosherHiveKicker

The water that forms the "storm surge" has to come from somewhere.

TheBuddha

Yes, yes it is a great conspiracy.

It was aliens.

Or, you and your friends conspired to not pay attention in science class. Hurricanes are huge. They have lots and lots of energy. Like, a metric-fuck-ton (proper scientific term) of energy. This energy is strong enough to cause the ocean to change its levels because it is, you know, fucking huge.

Also, tides and aliens. Yeah, aliens. It was water sucking aliens and they have stolen some of our ocean. The government denies this because they don't want people to panic. Or, it's just normal hurricane behavior exacerbated by the tide.

MaFishTacosDaBombBro

Hey, get out of here with that science talk! It was those damn aliens! Now if only they would stop abducting and probing me.

TheBuddha

It's 2017. You can admit you like being probed. It is okay. ;-)

Eatadickea

This is when you hunt for treasure. Be quick though that ocean might come back.

MaFishTacosDaBombBro

Yeah, the same thing happens when you're siphoning gas out of somebody's car. The pressure and gas levels need to equalize.

Edit: A low pressure system causes a sucking effect on the water Which might cause the water to rise 10 ft, also called storm surge. Then again, I'm not sure a difference of a few hundred mb is enough to cause a water head of 10 ft. Yet, at the same time, we're dealing with a hurricane that has a noticeable vortex effect and vortices have been shown to suck a lot more than it should. So it might be likely.

Edit 2: It has more to do with the high winds. The low pressure contributes a little, but it's mostly the winds flowing in a circular pattern that causes a build up of water closer to the eye.

NeedleStack

The ominous-looking occurrence was in fact caused by a combination of low tide, low pressure and strong winds in the right direction, which literally pushed the water away from the long narrow bay. The phenomenon has been dubbed “reverse storm surge” by some of those explaining it online.

Luckily the water came back gently and not like in a tsunami.

Edit: Why is this in /v/Conspiracy ? It's a natural event.

totes_magotes

It's in conspiracy because of this maybe? https://voat.co/v/Conspiracy/2118472

DasNincompoop

Haha, I saw that too. Just posted about it.

edistojim

Thanks for that. As if a cat5 hurricane is some kind of conspiracy……Jesus………..

DasNincompoop

Watched a video yesterday of some guy who patented hurricane creation and control technology. It's a real US patent. Not that I necessarily think it's being used but they've thought of it.

HR_PUFFERPHISH

It is being used. It's called HAARP. Look into it.

Edit: was just watching this video a few minutes ago from reddit.

It must be that witchcraft hexing us for voting for trump.

edistojim

Good an answer as any.

o0shad0o

Yeah, the general rule is, if you see this sort of thing happening, RUN THE FUCK AWAY, don't walk around taking video. These folks lucked out.

lestermacgurdy

Yeah, the general rule is, if you see this sort of thing happening, RUN THE FUCK AWAY

running from natural disasters is for pussies

abc_xyz

Yeah I mean when you see animals running the other way, and the tide goes so far out you can't see it:

run for the hills!

Charlez6

The last time I saw this in a video was from the tsunami in Indonesia(?).

That taught me that if you see this sort of thing happening, do whatever you like. You're already dead.

Against most tsunamis a decently high hill will protect you. This guy is a retard and should not have been there.

o0shad0o

Not true, if there's high ground within running distance. Tsunamis rarely form those iconic waves that are always pictured, they just flood in.

CowWithBeef

Hills are extremely effective against tsunamis so if there is a hill, that's your easy escape to survival. Skyscrapers are good as well.

NotWearingPants

Low tide and exceptionally strong offshore wind, not low pressure.

It's the opposite of storm surge, pulling the water away instead of piling it onshore.

ChippyTubes

I put it in conspiracy because of general twitter commentary, 4chan, general news across the blogs... and vids like this Bahamas Island Ocean is Missing?! https://www.bitchute.com/video/BdsSwGSFvnU/ Hurricane Irma sucks water from Bahamas beach in rare phenomenon... most probabl;y natural but de-bunked 'consporacies' should also be poste4d in conspiracy. Many social media users in Nassau and Bahamas are reporting the ocean is gone, almost as far as you can see . chances of seeing the most extraordinary weather phenomena are slim to none — a hurricane strong enough to change the shape of an ocean.

GuyIDisagreeWith

And it's already flowed back in.
