This map shows the base elevation of 2-ft in red and 21-ft in orange.
Some may say 21-ft is very high and the sea level will not rise 21 ft for centuries. However, the flooding risks are not solely based on the elevation, but the compounded impact of lunar tides and storm surges can cause much greater risks.
