I have a family member that lives in the neighborhood across Millerville from Target, and she got a little water in her garage, but none in the house. Yesterday was a bad day, because reports we were getting from that area were 4-5 feet of water in the houses, but she definitely got lucky.

Bard I hate to hear that ... we used to live on Greenview; was the first home we ever purchased. Stay safe and hope the recovery is quick.

My in laws are hoping to be able to drive out tomorrow

Does anyone know a way from Millerville to Airline?
Is I-12 still closed at that exit?
Is South Harrells Ferry heading West flooded?

The pic of the Mobil from wickowick is standing from my dads front yard.

You can go onto the interstate from Millerville towards Airline, but I don't know if you can get on the interstate from airline and go to Millerville. Also if you can't get back on the interstate, all the other paths are still flooded, so you won't be able to get back

Not safe, still flooded. Drove as close to there as I could and had to turn around bc of water in the road. You MAY be able to get closer in a truck, but I'd expect the neighborhood is still flooded

There are apts on both sides. The SE side has a lake behind them which flooded, SW side doesn't have a lake and is dry

We're not far from there and aren't planning to try to go back until tomorrow morning. I doubt any of that will be driveable until at least then.

My aunt lives on Rhonda. The water was a foot below the stop sign as of this morning. A lot of those homes are on a major incline though. They said Avalon was much worse.

I got these from the news. So I don't know about ponderosa closer to florida blvd. I heard it was flooded as well, but I don't know that for sure. I did see a pic from the Mcdonalds on florida at flannery and it was flooded.

Does anyone know if the Apartments on the south side of I12 at Millerville are reachable? Or if they currently have power (Demco)

The ones on the East side of Millerville have power. No idea if they're approachable or not.
