I-95 blocked

I planned on going to Florida using I-95 on 06 October. I understand it is closed in South Carolina. Does anyone know when it will reopen? Thanks
  • Friends of ours are trying to work their way south and they say that the flooding is bad all over SC and now starting in NC. The only sure & safe way they found, was to work their way over to I-75 in TN and take it south.
  • It's a mess here, do check with the DOT. We are still dealing with rain and now wind. Seen pictures of alligators on some of the roads yesterday and snakes too. We are being advised to stay home.

    ^^^ +1 and it is still raining. Many locations are having to boil their drinking water and some cities / counties are under a curfew.
    I would avoid SC for the next week or so until they recover.
