I live in Avondale and didn't see any flooding - not even much standing water - during the storm. I was surprised to hear the reports of flooding once power came back on. I guess it varied block to block.

the riverside area was much worse than Avondale - I'm in Avondale as well, and water never even came close to cresting the street.

The water warnings are rolled back to Wednesday, Black creek is flooding some homes and the St. Marys is 2' over the mark, The St. Marys will only get worse with all that is falling on Georgia. Thomas Creek in Nassau County is in flood stage between Jax and Callahan. Middleburg residents are completely cut off from waterfront homes, using boats for transport.

For my money, watch the St. Marys... 21 foot crest, 9' over flood stage and growing. That big swamp drains South Georgia but how many knew it's the only swamp of it's type on top of a hill? TRUE! Thus I fear for those folks.
