FHS student — Hwy 29 to Century. From there, it would depend where in Flomaton you needed to go. They are letting local residents in most areas. You would probably need to ask a police officer or fireman.

No word on any of the schools tomorrow. I know Escambia, FL is looking at the situation.

William, is there any word on our local FL schools for tomorrow? Looks like we may have flooding here by morning.

Why does someone always have to bring something up about the Alabama kids going to Florida schools? That is beside the point. All the flooding and heavy rains did not just stop at the state line. There are plenty of roads that are impassable in Northern Escambia county in Florida. Also, Baldwin county schools opened today even though there are many county roads closed. These two counties are similar, in that, the school systems ignore the Northern ends of the county when making the decision about closing or not.

Well, if the Atmore kids were going to school where they should be, they could have the day off too!

I agree with Emily, If Atmore is closed/ Northview–EWMS–and Bratt should close.. they already said that Greenland Rd is closed at highway 4–duhh, close the upper part of the county–Not geting my child out in this mess.
