Today we have had scattered tarballs washing ashore, one report of isolated amounts of reddish globs of oil and a report of oil smell. Local officials were prepared with cleanup crews on standby. For daily updates, visit www.GulfShores.com

Hi Bigbob1122 - We're posting a new video each day. The news isn't always positive, but we are sharing current information so you can have a first-hand view. There will always be different viewpoints, different opinions.

Hey i was thinking about heading down to that area this weekend, how are the conditions of the water? Is it ok to go in yet? I am visiting AL

About 150 gallons of additional oil spewed out of the open spigot in the 3 minutes it took to view this video. Thanks BP.

@02daft aww we didnt do it... BP did >.>

Really, we (those planning a vacation) can't trust what anyone says. The locals are all biased because they want to salvage their economy, and the national media wants to make a big story. There's not a reliable source of info.

I work right along the water in Orange Beach and she's correct, there isn't any oil on the beaches. It's really sad that a lot of people skipped out on visiting these past few weeks because news networks painted a much more disastrous scene here.
