Ooops!! Sea Level Rise In Miami Moving Far Faster Than Originally Thought

4. No the max water height is well known, for we have a good number as to ice at both poles.

As you can see it is only 216 feet, so Britton Hill will still be above water if all the ice in the world melted, the rest of Florida would be under water but NOT Britton Hill.

If you want a more detail and interactive map on sea level try this one, you can shift from 7 meters (What would happen if the West Antarctic Ice Sheet collapses, something that can raise world wide sea levels 7 or more meters within weeks) or less sea level increase OR more sea level increase (up to the 65 meters sea level would raise if the West Antarctic Ice Sheet, the much larger East Antarctic Ice Sheet and the Greenland ice Sheet would all melt).

Please note, present theory gives over a century for the East Antarctic Ice Sheet (EAIS) to Melt

EAIS could melt away by 2100:
