I heard St Johns River in FLA is only river in NA that flows north?  True or false? If true, why?

False. The Shenandoah River (Virginia) also flows North. There are likely more.\n\nEDIT: For more information... http://www.geocities.com/loisnotlane/rivers.html

Just recently i have read a article on the NAO or North Atlantic Ocillation i believe it was called.  The NAO has two cycles, a positive cycle and a negative cycle.  Currently the cold air is trapped in siberia where low temperatures have reached ne 70 Degrees below zero F.  Forecast for this NAO is said to change to the negative cycle after superbowl sunday, which is just cowincdince and that incredibly cold air will shift over into canada and eventually sink in the eastern US.  Causeing us to have normal if not below normal temperatures for february and march.

I forgot about the water difference ... the one that comes first to my mind is the "Stars" ... you will not have the "North Star" in the Southern Hemisphere ... honestly, I have no idea how Magellin navigated on his journey.

I Kayaked quite a bit when I lived in Kentucky, then I moved to Alaska, brr and was preggers. Now I am in Okinawa, I wish I knew somewhere to go nearby....... I prefer river by far. Nothing crazy just a 3 mostly. If anyone knows of any Islands nearby that might have a touch of water for play, let me in on it!

Avondale and Ortega on the west side of the St. John's River are both excellent areas to live.  Also anywhere out Atlantic Blvd around Kernan Blvd.  Of course the beaches are all nice but expensive ... Atlantic Beach, Neptune Beach, Jax Beach, Ponte Vedra Beach.  I would avoid areas like the southside and orange park as the traffic is horrific!!!!  Also, avoid anything downtown.

Stream beds change due to sediment load that it carries & amount of water. They can meander or cut deeper into their bed. Oxbow lakes can form when meanders are cut off from the rest of the stream.\n\nRocks weather by wind & water. Self explanatory. Rock is removed by the wind & water and redeposited somewhere else as sediment.\n\nShorelines can either build up or erode depending on where they are located. Hurricanes can wash away shorelines or build them up too. Depending on how intense the storm is & amount of storm surge/ high tide or low tide, etc. Barrier islands are constantly changing. They move further inland during transgressions & move back out again during regressions. Hurricane can also close or open new inlets along barrier islands. Many of NC's barrier inlets have been closed & reopened by major hurricanes over the past couple hundred years.\n\nKarst topography. Areas w/ limestone bedrock will form sinkholes where the limestone is dissolved by naturally forming acids. This occurs especially where too much water is pumped out from these limestone aquifers. You can get sinkholes & sinkhole lakes/ponds. Lots of these in Florida.

Beautiful!  Destin has very pretty water!\n\nhttp://www.angelfire.com/fl/boardheads2/surfcams.html - look down under panhandle for beach cams across Northwest Florida.\n\nWebcam http://www.liveeyenet.com/lulus/ at LULU's where Taylor Hicks (American Idol) grandmother watches the show.\nhttp://www.gulf-shores-alabama.net/beach-cam.html

Nevada is a hot realestate market. Not subject to hurricanes either. Water might be a problem.

I don't surf but I can't help but ask where at in fl.? I've lived here in Tampa for 20 years, and I've never seen a wave that big.

Unless the land it totally flat, rivers of water run downhill. The vast percentage of rivers on the planet flow in a southerly direction because the source (usually in the mountains) is to the north of the mouth. \nIf the source of a river is at a higher elevation than the mouth, that river will run from the source to the mouth. However, if that (higher) source is to the south of the mouth, that river will then flow to the north (downhill).

Correct\n\nwhy does the nile river flow south to north, the answer is very simple. The river just flows down hill, from the high mountains in the middle of africa to the Nile delta (point where Nile enters the Mediterranean Sea).

Licking River\n\n\nFrom Wikipedia >>\n\nThe Licking River is formed at Newark in Licking County by the confluence of its north and south forks:\n\nThe North Fork Licking River, about 35 mi (55 km) long, rises in southwestern Morrow County and initially flows generally east-southeastwardly through Knox County, past Centerburg, into Licking County, where at Utica it turns southwardly and flows past St. Louisville. In Licking County the North Fork collects the Otter Fork Licking River, which rises in Knox County and flows past Hartford; the Lake Fork Licking River; and the Clear Fork Licking River. The Lake and Clear forks both flow for their entire lengths in Licking County. \n\nThe South Fork Licking River, about 30 mi (50 km) long, rises in southwestern Licking County and initially flows southeastwardly past Pataskala and Kirkersville and briefly enters Fairfield County, where it turns northeastwardly back into Licking County and flows past Heath.

Hmmm, do you mean the Northwest Passage?  That was the hoped-for waterway between the Atlantic and Pacific.  Since it didn't exist, the Panama Canal was created.

Yes, there are also some tidal rivers.  The Danube is one I can think of.
