Traffic on I-65 in Atmore was flowing smoothly Sunday afternoon as thousands of evacuees headed north from the the coasts of Alabama, Mississippi and Lousiana.

Motorists experienced few delays in the early afternoon, with near bumper to bumper traffic continuing to move near the speed limit.

Gas was still available at stations at the Atmore Exit 57 early Sunday afternoon, with no more than five or six vehicles waiting in line at any one time. The Atmore Police Department was on hand to ensure the safe flow of traffic in and out of the gas stations at the exit.
