84 feet above sea level in my area, I don’t think ocean will raise that high in my life time? I live on small raise in area would have to see same 20 inches or more before be problem. Even if street drains plugged up house higher than street. Most rain I seen in day or two here since I’ve been here was little over 12 inches, some areas flooded in villages but, not my area.

Rivers has been flooding since beginning of time. Nothing can stop 20 inches or more of rain that falls within hours. Course if near river on flat land close to river odds go way up. I’m from Midwest, the Missouri, Mississippi river, and tributaries have flooded hundreds of times over centuries. Even after the corps of engineers tried to tame them in some areas made it worse. When I was kid I used to fish on Nodaway river known for water rising quickly, when it started poring I got out of there. Sure it ruined my trip but -I’ve seen what flooding can do even as 10 year kid.
