Fish River Drops Below Flood Stage

Fairhope, Alabama 

 

Highway 104 bridge

CRESTED WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON

The photo above is how Fish River appeared about 12 noon, on September 16 shortly before its 2:30 PM crest of 20.7 feet,  "major flood" stage.

For comparison, the epic April 30, 2014 rain storm crested at 23'.

16.8 inches was the hurricane's rainfall total, measured by the device visible on the bridge rail.
