Alabamans film 12ft 'monster' alligators swimming through their front yards as Hurricane Sally dumps four months of rain in four hours
Alligators have taken to the streets in Alabama after Hurricane Sally flooded roads and people's front yards.
Terrifying footage shows an alligator swimming outside the window of Tina Bennett's home on Old Plash Island Road, Gulf Shores, yesterday.
Hurricane Sally landed ashore near the Florida-Alabama line yesterday with 105 mph winds and rain swamping homes and forcing the rescue of hundreds of people.
And it has caused the displacement of animals, with 10 to 12ft alligators reported swimming through residential areas.

Tina says: 'Look at that alligator, that is right outside the window. He's going into the neighbor's driveway.
'This is why we don't want to go outside here on the island. And there's many more. Oh he is a monster.'
The alligator continues slowly forward before it stops and begins to turn around.

Rivers swollen by Hurricane Sally's rains threatened more misery for parts of the Florida Panhandle and south Alabama today
The storm's remnants were forecast to dump up to a foot of rain and spread the threat of flooding to Georgia and the Carolinas.
Coastal residents, meanwhile, looked to begin the recovery from a storm that turned streets into rivers, ripped roofs off buildings, knocked out power to hundreds of thousands and killed at least one person.
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis warned residents and visitors in flooded areas that they would need to remain vigilant as water from the hurricane subsides

Heavy rains to the north were expected to cause flooding in Panhandle rivers in coming days.
DeSantis said: 'So this is kind of the initial salvo, but there is going to be more that you're going to have to contend with.'
At least one death has been blamed on the hurricane. Orange Beach, Alabama, Mayor Tony Kennon said one person in the popular vacation spot died and another was missing as a result of the storm.
He said he could not immediately release details.
