(There is a surprise hidden in this letterboxed).

OA, a positive spin on sea levels rising.

CLIMBERS – SHORTEN
Ironic cuz I could have shortened this solution! 😂

Strombolis/Stench. Small s stromboli. Not what a pizza joint wants.

TECHNICOLOR – RHOMBS Festive geometry.
Found THROMBOSIS right off but somehow missed a partner for it.

Three Cheers for a successful Letterboxed answer! We did some extra work by using CLIMBERS instead of just CLIMBS, but alas, it did not matter. It has been oh so long since we have solved this glorious puzzle, but we were excited to do it nonetheless. Appreciate the assist from MT today, and we’ll see y’all later!
