Washington, Feb 18 : A panel of scientists has predicted that New York will be hotter, rainier and more likely to flood in the coming decades, with sea levels possibly rising more than four feet.
"All of the evidence from the science community is that the seas are going to rise," said New York's Mayor Bloomberg, as he unveiled the panel's report.
"It's pretty hard to not understand something's going on, very worrisome and scary, on this planet," he added.
