The IPCC says we will see more sea level rise in the 21st century, with extreme events (like severe coastal flooding) happening every year by the end of the century: https://sealevel.nasa.gov/understanding-sea-level/key-indicators/global-mean-sea-level | NASA Climate Change

Unparalleled views of sea level rise ⬆️🌊🛰 Global sea levels have risen more than 4 inches (102 millimeters) since measurements began in 1992, increasing coastal flooding in some places. As ocean water warms, it expands and takes up more space. The added heat in the air and ocean is also melting ice sheets and glaciers, which adds freshwater to the ocean and further raises sea levels.
