BILOXI, Miss. (WLOX) - Hurricane Ida is expected approach the coast of Southeastern Louisiana early Sunday afternoon as a powerful category 4 hurricane. While this puts the core of the most destructive winds and storm surge west of South Mississippi, the South Mississippi coast will still feel impacts in the form of storm surge, heavy flooding rains, and strong damaging wind gusts.

5 AM Sunday Hurricane Ida Update(WLOX)

Hurricane Ida is expected to bring significant storm surge to parts of the South Mississippi coast. With a projected track just west of South Mississippi, that will put much of the coast on the side of onshore flow, allowing water to pile along the coast. Hancock County could see surge up to 8-12 feet. Harrison County could see surge up to 6-9 feet. Jackson county could see up to 4-7 feet Sunday into the day Monday.

The Potential Storm Surge Flooding Map depicts the risk associated with coastal flooding from storm surge associated with tropical systems. Developed over the course of several years in consultation with social scientists, emergency managers, broadcast meteorologists, and others, this map shows:

• Geographical areas where inundation from storm surge could occur
• The heights, above ground, that water could reach in those areas

The geographic areas of possible storm surge flooding and the potential height of water above ground for a given storm are represented by different colors on the map based on water level.
