Heavy Rain, Coastal Flooding and Isolated Tornadoes Possible in Florida Panhandle from Hurricane Ida
Hurricane Ida is poised to rapidly intensify before landfall in Louisiana late Sunday. The National Hurricane Center expects the storm to reach category 4 strength and produce “life-threatening storm surge, potentially catastrophic wind damage, and flooding rainfall” across the northern Gulf Coast.

A line of heavy thunderstorms moving through the Panhandle is capable of producing areas of wind damage late Wednesday morning into early Wednesday afternoon.
Weekend Update: The risk of wind damage, hail, and even a tornado has gone up for areas along and north of I-10 corridor in #FLPanhandle and #NFla Saturday. Rest of state will be rather quiet.
