The remnants of Ida are moving north and east of the area bringing
gale force wind from the north over area bays and waterways. Some tide
stations report that tides 2 to 3 feet above normal are still
occurring although they are decreasing rapidly. The presence of high
tides will affect port operations and vessel handling through this
afternoon which includes the coastal waters out to 60 nm off Alabama
and northwest Florida... as well as Mobile Bay. Later this morning and
this afternoon the tide level may fall significantly below normal due
to the effect of strong north winds pushing water out of the bays.
Such conditions could risk vessels becoming aground... blocking vital
intakes and fittings. Mariners... especially large vessel operators at
anchor... moored... or operating in water depth near vessel draft
should watch for unusually low tides through this evening.

... Wind Advisory now in effect until 9 PM CST this evening...

The Wind Advisory is now in effect until 9 PM CST this evening.

Strong wind gusts of 25 to 35 mph are expected to continue through 9
PM this evening around the departing remnant low of Ida.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

A Wind Advisory means that winds of 25 to 39 mph are expected.
Winds this strong can make driving difficult... especially for
high profile vehicles. Use extra caution.

... Record daily maximum rainfall set at Pensacola...

a record rainfall of 3.64 inches was set at Pensacola yesterday.
This breaks the old record of 1.6 set in 1948.
