    At the rate we’re losing glacial ice, I think “long term” in this situation is likely on the order of 100 years or less. But yes, hurricanes are fucking Florida’s shit up; it’s quickly eroding coastal areas, and storm surges can end up flooding pretty far inland.

      oh it’s most definitely going to be a big problem because it won’t just be florida, but yeah, it’s gonna take time (not as long as they predicted but still half a centuryish) for that to inundate the lowlands. Until then, I suspect hurricanes will scour the place clean.
