This is what California would look like if all the icebergs melted...

If the icebergs melted the sea level wouldn't change. Does your glass full of ice water change when the ice cubes melt? Now if the glaciers melted that could cause a sea level change but not enough to flood whole states.
Putting an ice cube in the water raises the level. Icebergs come from glaciers that are over land.
Glaciers are renewed by precipitation. The cycle goes around.
That's if the ice is floating in the water.
I once did a rough calculation and came up with a rise of about 2 feet.
There is a whole lot of ocean area.
Ice floats.
There is ice on the land that can melt and flow into the ocean.
From my ballpark calculations it can't raise the sea level enough to make a big deal.
As in glaciers? Yes, that would be true. True also that it won't affect the sea level negatively....
Just what I was going to write!

What might cause this is a pole wobble, and the magnetic poles are destabilizing and traveling to new locations faster than ever toward each other. Sounds crazy but they will meet, the two opposite magnetic poles (not geological poles) at the Indian Ocean in about 8 to 20 years. Like two opposite poles of two magnets, they'll slam together, causing volcanism, earthquakes, and tsunamis.
That will likely be the death knell for west of the Rockies.
