Greetings from Yulee, FL, after an 890 mile drive from the Jersey Shore!
We departed at 2:48 a.m. and made it to the DE Memorial Bridge at 4:17 a.m.
We crossed into MD at 4:32. Traffic was heavy, but moving fast, by the time we crossed into VA at 6:23 a.m. Traffic was moderate to heavy until Richmond when it stopped once.
We crossed in NC at 10:00 a.m. [By the way, the weather was perfect for the entire drive.]
Now then: There is only one single-lane slowdown on I-95 south in NC. A warning sign alerted us to an upcoming delay.
Exactly at Exit 31 (at 12:20 p.m.), the traffic came to a stop and
then it crawled for the next 9 miles according to Wayz app. The highway finally opened up to two lanes a few hundred yards from Exit 25 @ 1:05 p.m. It appeared that the construction crew was very close to completing the job (a new guard rail was already in place). I have a feeling that I-95 south in NC will be open within days. No problems on I-95 north.
From around mm 56 in NC until northern GA, we saw over 1,000 toppled trees and dozens of dents in the guard rails!
The GA welcome center is expected to be completed sometime in January 2017.
Tomorrow, a quick visit to a friend in Port Orange, and then on to Lake Buena Vista, home of WDW.
All the best!
