    ...the "Gulf of America" (lol).

    Let's have an Overview:

    *#AtlanticOcean:*

    The #Atlantic coast faces serious hurricane and nor'easter risks. Recent events highlight the intensity: king tides combined with strong onshore winds can elevate water levels 1–3 feet above normal, with storm surge reaching 6 feet or more.

    Rising sea levels compound coastal flooding, as the #EPA has documented that #k ingTides are occurring...

    "We" as in USA?

    That is a different story, I'd say.
    Not only regarding the size of territory involved or the about 340 mn. people.
    I'd hazard a guess, that in the overwhelming parts of the coastlines, it is oceans with completely different tides and storms than in the very calm and relatively protected coastal regions of the Gulf region.
    And we have not even talked about the increasing "firepower" of #Hurricanes, not only in
