(18,732 posts)1. Rising sea levels
Florida has a pretty bleak future. More of these powerful storms are going to be hitting it regularly. And these storms will be how the sea claims the land there. Some of the surge might just make formerly dry parts of the coast permanently wetland going forward. The erosion will also take a toll. Eventually you'll have a major storm just leave parts of the Keys underwater.
I will not be retiring there when I retired in 15 or so years because of all of this.
