Any locals that can give status on current state of the Lauderdale beach areas?

The beaches are just starting to reopen. The Yankee clipper is a better choice for al the pre described reasons. Considering what the temperature in Buffalo will be in December I would think that the "50's or 60's" would be a Godsend (besides it's fun to watch the locals walk around in scarves and gloves and complain about wind chill")
About half of the traffic lights have been repaired/replaced so by December all of them hopefully wil be in place and traffic flow improved. In any case- rent a car, you wont regret it.
