What will happen? most of Florida is less than 12 feet above sea level and a 12 foot storm surge is coming?

Much of Florida has an elevation of less than 12 feet (3.7 m), including many populated areas such as Miami which are located on the coast. Miami and other parts of south Florida are the most vulnerable regions in the world to rising sea levels associated with climate change.

To the post about the east coast NOT going to have hurricane winds, you are dead wrong. We are expecting cat 2 winds starting tomorrow. Luckily Irma will not be bringing the flooding that Harvey did. The coastline are expecting storm surges but those if us inland, are safe.

@Stereoguy the cat 5 up the middle of the state was terrifying. But the news says being on the east side of storm is bad. It was going to hit Naples dead on but now it's ft myers

@Stereoguy thus storm has been one big surprise. First the magnitude then the course. The European models were right all along but it can wobble and hit us

@Stereoguy it is going to hit big pine key and marathon before it jogs to the west. Miami is not taking a direct hit as predicted but will get the high winds. It seems that this course is what they all agree on

@Stereoguy my friend left the east coast to go to famiky in Tampa. The storm changed course so they are in New Orleans. Stupid move with Katia hanging out
