From Florida Department of Transportation District Three: The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) is providing an update on road and bridge closures and restrictions in Northwest Florida due to heavy rainfall. All rail, airport, transit and seaport facilities are functioning as normal. Bay County · State Road (S.R.) 392A (Middle Beach Road) is closed to traffic. · Business U.S. 98 from Bayou Drive to Cherry Street is closed to traffic. Walton County · S.R. 81 is closed at Old Ward Place and Rock Hill Road. Traffic is detoured at Rock Hill Road to U.S. 331. Northbound traffic is detoured to U.S. 331 and S.R. 79. Several roads have water crossing the road for a short period of time and then receding. These areas are signed and being monitored. Motorists are reminded to be watchful of other drivers and road conditions and to be on the lookout for flooded roads. If the road ahead is flooded, turn around and find an alternate route. Flooded roads may hide the fact that the roadway is washed out underneath and as little as six inches of rushing water can force your car off the road.
