What happened

The episode as NWS JAN wrote it up.

Major hurricane Ida made landfall as a strong category four hurricane around 11:55am on August 29 near Grand Isle, LA. It then moved very slowly north through south central Louisiana and into Mississippi on August 30. It then turned northeast and moved across the Jackson metro area as a tropical storm and into northeast Mississippi as a tropical depression through the early morning of August 31. Ida brought tropical storm force gusts to portions of Mississippi, which brought down trees and power lines. Rainfall amounts of 4-8 inches occurred, which resulted in localized flooding.

What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before the first event, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Jackson, MS wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Aug 29, 5:45 PM CST, 3 hours 15 minutes earlier.

...DANGEROUS MAJOR HURRICANE IDA INLAND NORTHERN GULF COAST IN
LOUISIANA...

.UPDATE...
Updated for 00Z aviation discussion

.AVIATION...
00Z TAF discussion:
Hurricane Ida moving through southern LA and into MS this evening
and through the TAF pd. Sustained winds increasing from 10-15kts
to 20-35kts tomorrow...gusts increasing from 25-50kts+. Gusts with
bands of showers expected through the overnight...with
deteriorating cigs and visibility. LLWS also a concern, models
running in the 50-65kts range, but have brought it down slightly
due to the slowing of the storm and potential decay impacting the
exact track. LLWS forecast is low confidence simply due to the
nature of a tropical system moving inland. Widespread MVFR-IFR
cigs expected through the overnight and through tomorrow.

.DISCUSSION...

Tonight-Tuesday:

Major Hurricane Ida made landfall along the southern Louisiana
Coast near Grand Isle, LA, bringing catastrophic damage & winds,
surge & heavy rainfall to the region. The satellite & radar
presentation continues to remain well established through the day,
with a large eye & intense eyewall on the eastern quadrant. There
hasn't even been much in the way of warming in the eye & cirrus
shield, indicative of such a powerful & well established
hurricane. This will bring widespread damaging impacts to a large
swath of the northern Gulf Coast. For our region, expect Ida to
gradually slow down & turn more N-NE tonight around the base of
the subtropical ridge over the Carolinas. The synoptic & sfc
pattern remains the same & no major changes in the going forecast
of track & intensity is expected. Outer bands have spread in
across the region today, but expect more deterioration into the
overnight hours & through the day Monday. Increased low-level
shear will keep a tornado threat & tornado watch through 7PM.
Detailed impacts are below:

Wind threat: Ida continues to remain very well established as it
moves inland just east of Vermillion Bay. Expect a slight slowing
over the next several hours & turning to the N-NE just before to
around midnight. This is when the strongest pressure gradient &
low-level winds (i.e. 60-65kts+ H925 flow & 60kts H850 flow) will
move over the area. Based upon how the storm organization remains
& the expanding wind field, the main changes were to keep expand
the Significant Threat further N & E towards the Jackson Metro
area, while capturing some more of the Hwy 84 corridor in W Marion
Co. the rest of the region. In addition, even with some decay of
the storm as it moves through the region overnight & through
Monday, the storm is progged to remain organized & low-mid level
flow will remain strong. Due to that, there will remain wind
threat even as the storm begins to get absorbed up in the
westerlies across the Mid-S & into the TN Valley. Hi-res CAM
guidance, including HRRR, indicate some higher gust potential into
the I-55 & Hwy 82/Hwy 45 corridors, especially in the Golden
Triangle. Due to that & even with the storm likely decaying, wind
gust potential from the center of circulation could be approaching
low-end tropical storm strength & widespread 45-65mph winds, with
winds approaching 65-75mph in south-central to SW MS. Even though
this is conditional, there remains potential for damaging winds &
continued damage & impacts.

The Tropical Storm Warning has been expanded to include areas
from Grenada Co & E into Golden Triangle & S along Hwy 45 into
Lauderdale Co. These winds will likely cause downed trees,
powerlines & numerous power outages. We highly stress to make sure
you have your preparations now, in case of power loss. Further
SW, if the storm can retain organization, there is some probs of
reaching hurricane force gusts into Adams, Franklin & Lincoln Co
areas. Did not introduce a Hurricane Warning but will need to be
monitored extremely closely.

Further NW, the winds will be more gradient potential & due to
strictly gusts, so introduced a Wind Advisory for Ashley & Chicot
Co in AR & Bolivar, Sunflower & Leake Co in MS.

Flooding threat: There remains high confidence of confluence of
deep moisture & continued high rainfall rates as Ida moves through
the region. HREF cam suite PMM & LPMM indicate high potential for
widespread high amounts of 4-8" of rain or higher over most of the
2/3 of the CWA, generally along & E of the MS River. With the
influence of being absorbed in the westerlies, rainfall will be
more along & E of the center track. Have adjusted the HWO/graphic
to introduce a Significant Threat in the Marion, Lamar & Forrest
Co areas in Hwy 84 corridor as intense rainfall rates & continued
convergent banding are supported by HREF PMM/LPMM of 8-10+
inches. Elsewhere, the current ongoing graphic looks good. There
still could be quite a bit of tight gradient along & W of the
track, so the western edge of the Elevated/Limited & Flash Flood
watch may need to be adjusted in future forecast cycles. For now,
kept the Flash Flood Watch configuration & timing as is.

Tornado threat: As Ida continues the trek NE, low-level
0-1km/0-3km flow around 40-50kts & 300-400+ m2/s2 will lead large
hodographs with potential for tornadoes. Instability will remain
on the lower side, due to overcast conditions, but low-level WAA
will keep some low-level instability around. Some brief breaks in
clouds can't be ruled out somewhat. The best parameter space will
be along & E of the low track, which is in central-SE MS, mainly
along & S of I-20 corridor. Kept the previous mention of Slight
risk in the HWO/graphics with SPC Day 1 & Day 2 outlooks.

Confidence remains tightly clustered & the storm will bring
widespread impacts across the region, with most of the impacts
moving out into Tuesday. Any small deviation or wobble in the eye
will cause drastic differences in wind, flood & tornado potential
& impacts. All preparations need to be rushed to completion, as
conditions will quickly deteriorate through the afternoon & into
the evening hours. /DC/

Wednesday through Sunday:

Remnants of Ida will have gotten picked up by an UL trough thus
shifting it to the northeast CONUS by mid-week. Northwest flow aloft
will prevail in its wake, with seasonal avg temps making a return.
Could see a few diurnally driven showers/thunderstorms Wednesday and
Thursday especially across southern MS, however severe weather is
not expected. Thereafter, UA ridging will be the dominate synoptic
feature late week and into the weekend, as its center is poised to
be across the Southern Plains. This will lead to drier conditions
and seasonal norms. Early next week, the ridge will shift towards
the southeastern US, but will keep the CWA under the influence of
subsidence resulting in continued dry conditions. /29/
