9::00 AM: A drive around the Island indicates that circulation is possible, but standing water at locations on Seabrook Island Road requires caution. Earlier this morning, Island Security was turning back traffic at Seabrook Island Road and Baywood. The section of SBIR between Baywood and Andell Way has standing water.
On the opposite loop of SBIR, there is standing water at the intersection of the maintenance shed area and in the area around the intersection of Cat Tail Pond. Royal Pine and the near vicinity of Old Forest also has standing water. All these roads are passable, but we advise traversing them slowly and, if possible, in vehicles with higher wheel bases.
The parkway to the traffic circle is OK, but water is building up in the ditches. Harris Teeter is open in Freshfields.
Conditions at some of these locations will likely worsen on either side of high tide, which will occur between 1:00 and 1:30 PM today.
