Inland Tropical Wind Watch
Statement as of 12:01 am CST on November 9, 2009/


... Tropical storm wind watch in effect from Tuesday morning
through Wednesday afternoon...

... New information...
a tropical storm wind watch is now in effect from Tuesday morning
through Wednesday afternoon due to the approach of Hurricane Ida.

... Precautionary/preparedness actions...
precautionary/preparedness actions...

As Hurricane Ida approaches the region late Monday night and into
Tuesday... winds will begin to increase with the potential for low
end tropical storm force winds in portions of southeastern Alabama
and southwestern Georgia. These winds will have the potential to
create some power outages... thus make sure you have on hand non-
perishable food items... like canned goods and bottled water. Tropical
storm force winds are capable of causing minor damage to Mobile
homes. Secure light weight items... like garbage cans and patio
furniture. These items will have the potential to become
projectiles during the height of the storm and cause additional
damage.

Preparations should be made as soon as possible... before
conditions deteriorate. Keep informed while listening for possible
warnings.


... Probability of tropical storm/hurricane conditions...
in southeast Alabama and southwestern Georgia the chance for
tropical storm conditions by Tuesday afternoon is up to 65 percent.

... Winds...
as Hurricane Ida moves closer... the threat for sustained tropical
storm force winds is likely to increase. The latest forecast is
for sustained winds near tropical storm force with gusts in excess
of tropical storm force to begin after daybreak Tuesday and
continue through Tuesday night.

... Inland flooding...
depending on the exact track of Hurricane Ida... storm total
rainfall amounts could approach 3 to 5 inches with locally heavier
amounts possible. This has the potential to cause minor flooding
in urbanized areas as well as for rises in river levels to near
minor flood stage in the days ahead.
