West Virginia - 1200 feet
Now the Atlantic Ocean is starting to spread west inundating towns such as Fort Ashby, Romney, Moorefield, Petersburg and areas surrounding Keyser. If the rising waters are slower or Canada has a large tidal surge that makes its way down through the Great Lakes, Lake Erie would be flooding down the Ohio River. This would affect the western half of the state. Areas affected include Morgantown and towns along northern Interstate 79, Charleston, Parkersburg and come inland as far as Sutton, Montgomery and Delbarton.
