Here's a video clip from WEWS Channel 5 of the roller coasters of Six Flags over Georgia.  Most of the park is under water.  They just updated their website to showcase their halloween attractions.  I doubt they'll be open until at least next year.

The park actually plans on being open this weekend, but that just might be wishful thinking.

It does look bad, but I do think the park will open this year, maybe just not this week.

Guess its time to blame the President for flooding this park, much like Bush was blamed for a hurricane, only fair!

Does this make GASM a water coaster?

Bush shouldn't have blamed for the hurricane evacuation, that was all Kathleen Blanco's (Louisiana Governor) doing. Blame her.

Anyway, back on topic, SFoG Has reopened with all the major rides running. The park is in a flood plain and has this problem every few years.
