precautionary/preparedness actions...
final actions to protect life and property should be completed
before conditions deteriorate. Cover windows and doors with
shutters or plywood. Move patio furniture and other loose outdoor
objects inside. Brace all exterior doors... including garage doors.

Comply with any evacuation orders issued for your area. If you
live in a Mobile home... leave it for more substantial shelter. If
your home is vulnerable to high winds... or you live in a surge
zone or any location prone to flooding... evacuate to a designated
shelter or ride out the storm in the sturdy home of family or
friends outside of evacuation zones.


... Winds...
as Tropical Storm Ida approaches... sustained tropical storm force
winds are expected to begin late this evening. Minor damage may
occur to older Mobile homes. Residents should move loose items
indoors... such as garbage cans and outdoor furniture... as they
will be blown around. Newly planted or Young trees and shrubs may
be uprooted if not secured properly. Isolated power outages will
be possible.

... Storm surge and storm tide...
tides are currently running around 3 feet above normal this
morning. These high tide levels may lead to some Road closures by
this afternoon. Minor storm surge flooding of 3 to 4 feet can be
expected outside of hurricane protection levees and in areas
around lakes Pontchartrain and Maurepas from this afternoon
through Tuesday morning as Tropical Storm Ida moves through the coastal
waters of Louisiana and Mississippi. Some non elevated homes in
these areas may experience flooding. Minor to moderate tidal
flooding of property and perhaps some flooding of low lying roads
may occur during high tide.
