Gulf Coast warnings in place of Ida

A hurricane warning was in effect from Pascagoula, Miss., east to Indian Pass, Fla., as Hurricane Ida made its way north to the U.S. Gulf coast, according to the National Hurricane Center.

The warning area was flanked by two stretches of tropical storm warnings: on the east from east of Indian Pass, Fla., to Aucilla, Fla; and on the west from Pascagoula to Grand Isle, La. — including New Orleans.

According to a map released at 3 a.m., Ida was expected to come ashore early Wednesday near the Florida-Alabama border.
