Local News from the Florida/Alabama Gulf Coast
Mobile County public and private schools closed until further notice
Baldwin County schools closed until further notice (An interesting note: Although Baldwin County, on the Eastern Shore of Mobile Bay, and my area, is quickly healing, the schools are remaining closed because of the gas shortage in the area.)
Atlantic Marina Shipyards in Mobile, Alabama closed until further notice
The Port of Pensacola (Florida) is getting calls from across the world, requesting port access. The ships are already in the Gulf, but cannot go to their usual ports Louisiana and Alabama. As of now, the Coast Guard still has the Gulf waters closed, so the Port of Pensacola is unable to assist the ships who need a port.
7am - 7pm, FEMA will distribute water, ice, MREs (meals ready to eat), until supply runs out.
Hot meals distributed across Mobile County 11am - 7pm
Eastbound lanes of Mobile Causeway still closed. Parts of the road are washed out.
