Here's another view of the lowlands of New Orleans. Remember how much water was in the streets in South Florida after Katrina skirted there? And that area is above sea level.
The yellow and light green areas will simply be gone.

I'm no scientist, but I do seem to remember hearing how the levy system has disrupted silt replenishment and/or water tables, causing large areas of the delta to slowly sink.

I can't help but speculate if someday in the distant future, the city of New Orleans might have to be abandoned to the sea.

Or maybe I just need more coffee.
