Assuming just rain and no storm surge?

A city actually on the coast should handle it best since water doesnr have to drain far.

So maybe Miami


That was my thought. The again, it's not as if Houston doesn't sit right next to a bay that drains into the gulf

Maybe Chicago or Milwaukee since they sit right on the lake?

Chicago drains very well and has tremendous infrastructure to handle a lot of rain compared to other major cities, but it's super flat. That would be the problem - think some of those big Mississippi floods how the water just sort of sits there.
