This post is misleading. This scenario will only happen after all the ice is melted in Antarctica causing a >200ft sea level rise, which would take at least a couple millenia of extreme global warming to happen. There will be beachfront property slipping into the sea by 2075 with a lot of ecological and economic consequences involved, the NOAA has given us a neat little tool for visualizing what's to come. https://coast.noaa.gov/slr/#/layer/slr

Don't forget all the extreme weather eroding away the peninsula. I'm less worried about sea level rise over the next 50 years than I am of a 20' storm surge happening over the course of a few hours.

Archive that, it’s gonna vanish soon.

Thank you for the dose of reality. Of course it would be nice if Florida sank into the sea. But let's try to stick to reality.
