UPDATE...
TROPICAL STORM IDA MADE LANDFALL AROUND DAUPHIN ISLAND AND IS NOW
OVER MOBILE BAY. RAIN BAND THAT WAS MOVING ACROSS COASTAL COUNTIES
OF MISSISSIPPI HAS MOSTLY DISSIPATED/MOVED NORTHEAST...SO HAVE

COUNTY...SO EXTENDED THE WIND ADVISORY UNTIL 9 AM. TIDES CONTINUE
TO FALL FASTEST WHERE THERE IS NO UPSTREAM BACKWATER IN BAYS AND
RIVERS...BUT A FEW LOCATIONS CONTINUE TO EXPERIENCE HIGH WATER
WHERE TRAPPED WATER IS SLOWER TO GET PUSHED OUT. THE SLOSH EFFECT
OF WATER MOVEMENT THROUGH LAKE PONTCHARTRAIN/LAKE MAUREPAS AND
ADJACENT TIDAL MARSHES WILL CAUSE THE WATER TO STAY UP LONGEST
NEAR LAKE MAUREPAS...SO COASTAL FLOOD WARNINGS WILL NEED TO BE
CONTINUED ACROSS LIVINGSTON PARISH...AND POSSIBLY ISSUED FOR ST.
JOHN THE BAPTIST PARISH AFTER THE TROPICAL STORM WARNING IS
CANCELLED.
