... Coastal Flood Watch in effect from Sunday evening through late Monday night...
The National Weather Service in Mobile has issued a coastal Flood Watch... which is in effect from Sunday evening through late Monday night.
The combination of strong onshore flow combined with high tide levels is expected to create tide levels of 2 to 3 feet above normal. This will create total tide levels of 3 to 4 feet. If Ida is stronger than currently forecast across the southern Gulf... the increased swell would cause even higher tide levels than the current forecast.
Residents living in flood prone areas along the coastal sections of Mobile and Baldwin counties... including Mobile Bay... along with coastal sections of northwest Florida should take necessary precautions to protect life and property in case these high tide levels are reached.
Precautionary/preparedness actions...
A coastal Flood Watch means that conditions favorable for flooding are expected to develop. Coastal residents should be alert for later statements or warnings... and take action to protect property.
