Quoting: Anonymous Coward 75490491 I'd imagine the water simply sinks back down and out toward the ocean through natural underground channels. It takes some of the limestone with it, as it goes down. Sink holes will continue to be a problem. The New Madrid is a lot bigger problem, and we just don't know what it will take to trigger the big one. Water adds weight and lubricant to the already fragile seismic zone. If the New Madrid does rupture, the world could be a very different place. There are just too many nuclear reactors sitting on top of that one. Reactors can't shut down fast enough to prevent a radioactive disaster. Hope for the best, but prepare for the worst.

Quoting: Yes I Did !! Now I'm wondering how all of this water in Florida will affect that structure ??? Also... with so much water weight from Texas, and now Florida, Georgia, SC, and other states... will the New Madrid Seismic Zone become "off-balance" ??? OK, GLP.... what do you think ? I would say thats silly and it could never happen, but after seeing all those pictures of dry seabeds because the hurricane was so strong that it pulled up all that water, well, its hard to believe so much water could be moved at once, so I guess anything could happen |

Most predictions for earth change in USA show half of the Florida Peninsula gone. About Ocala and south. Don't know if this will happen. As far a the New Madrid there has to be a certain balance of the earth so you may be right. Anyhow interesting point of view. There are also volcano's in the Gulf of Mexico which may be problematic sometime in the future. I too research a possible relocation before a move.
