I'm a whopping 10 feet above sea level. Twisties? Sweepers? Far and few between.

If you live next to the ocean, couldn't you have made an educated guess without using Google Earth?

With all this rain, for the last 3 days(and high tide), I'm getting closer to sea level.

My house is around 750ft.
I live in the Midwest version of SanFran (both in terms of politics and topography/climate). There's parts of town where in one block you can go up 40' or more. The biggest difference I've seen so far is an 85ft elevation difference just on the short-side of a block. |

3 feet according to google earth, but enough canals and lakes that we have never come close to flooding.
Go down to Sweetwater in Miami during a heavy rain or hurricane and they are -3 feet!
