It looks like it would take about 14m to flood my street. I couldn't figure out how to query that map for a new address. I had to scroll from your parents house all the way to my house and them play with the flood depth drop down.
Yeah, when I went to the site, it was a world map and I had to pan and zoom to get to the area I wanted. It appears to work off latitute, longitude and zoom level only.
This site says the sea will rise less than 0.1 meters over the next 10 years.
Also, from wikipedia: If small glaciers and polar ice caps on the margins of Greenland and the Antarctic Peninsula melt, the projected rise in sea level will be around 0.5 m. Melting of the Greenland ice sheet would produce 7.2 m of sea-level rise, and melting of the Antarctic ice sheet would produce 61.1 m of sea level rise.[11] The collapse of the grounded interior reservoir of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet would raise sea level by 5-6 m.
