Drivers are urged to watch out for wet and flooded roads across the Gulf Coast today.

Baldwin County School spokesperson Terry Wilhite says buses are not traveling in the Bon Secour area because roads are flooded and have been closed.
Wilhite says Highway 49, Highway 16, Highway 12 and Highway 10 in the Bon Secour area are closed.

Wilhite says washed out roads in the Elberta area could also cause problems for school buses this morning.

Wilhite says Highway 95 in Elberta is washed out. The intersection of South 87 and Highway 20 is also washed out.

There is also flooding near the streets around the new Foley Elemenetary construction site. The school is still open and police are directing traffic in the area.

Wilhite says officers are at all flooded and washed out locations directing traffic.

The Baldwin County Sheriff's Office says drivers should also use caution on the Foley Beach Express south of Highway 98. Deputies say there is significant water over the roadway.
