Millions of years ago the ocean covered much of Oklahoma so anything can happen in geologic time frames. I feel very safe from tsunamis and they are about the same threat level as a major meteor strike.
If both polar ice caps fully melt, the sea level rise is 200 feet. That map is not just wrong, it is 100% false #fakenews

The map shows areas that are 5000-6000 feet ASL as flooded, yet most of New York state is not flooded. At 4000 feet of water, all of New York becomes 46 tiny islands in the Adirondacks...And I've been to more than 30 of those "tiny islands".
