Pretty sure HWY 59 is open all the to Fort Morgan Rd now, and probably to the beach by tomorrow.

Just got back from a quick ride around and HWY 59 is now open to the beach, but there is still water across the road between Saw Grass and Waterville.
The water is pretty much gone along East Beach Blvd, but I didn't go past 135.
There is still a good bit of water crossing 135 in spots, but not deep.

Flippers in Orange Beach/Bear Point Marina is not accessible as of this evening due to high water. There was a small grey house that isn't elevated on Bay La Launch that still had water in the house and the water had receded by foot. The bay was all the way up the street at that house. I talked to some folks at J&M today who said the canal and bays were full of stray boats and pwc that had been floated off their lifts by the high water. 161 had a couple of places with fast water running across the road and the low spots on Beach Blvd were holding water as well but passable.
I’ll be sliding into town March 10-14. Can you have it warm and sunny for me then? And also, how about having the fish biting??? :D
