This articles suggests a 3 feet rise. That is out of the question in my opinion. I have personally been watching the level of the ocean water by using the water level in the Miami Florida inside waterway. This water level is clearly visible and marked at the keysides and concrete embankments. This water level in Miami has been the same for the last 15 years right up until now 2012 and is there for anyone to check out.I am not just making this up. Honestly, if water levels rise 3 foot in Miami Bay all of Miami Beach will be under a few inches of water.
