Ida was just wet and windy
Tropical storm Ida has come and gone leaving behind very little damage. The late season storm dumped a few inches of rain and blew gusty winds through the area. Some beach front roads were overwashed and covered with sand, but otherwise there was not much in the way of serious damage.
Gulf Coast residents kept a wary eye on the storm as it blew up into a hurricane in the western Caribbean and plowed into the Gulf of Mexico. Ida, as forecast, degenerated into a tropical storm and sloshed her way onto the central Gulf Coast at Dauphin Island, Alabama.
Ida's remnants merged with an Atlantic storm that is pounding the Carolinas and the Atlantic Seaboard.
