I'm trying to figure out if any of the roads south are open. I have not heard from my parent in 2 days. They are in Hattiesburg. I talked to them right after the storm. They are OK. It's just there is no gas, ice, water. I'm thinking about loading up the van with supplies and heading down. My route is usually 65 to Birmingham 20 to Meridian and 59 down to Hattiesburg. If 59 is closed my alternate would be from Meridian to Jackson on 20 and go down 49 to Hattiesburg. It's looking like at least 2 weeks for power and all circuits are busy trying to call.

you might want to call your local news joint and ask the question or you can call the MS State Troopers office. They can tell you

Thanks for the info. Looks like I'm out of luck in all directions. Seminary is about 15 miles north of Hattiesburg. Laurel is 20 miles northeast of Hattiesburg. Maybe by this weekend more routes will be open.

Thanks again.
