The story of Ida is over, at least as far as the National Hurricane Center is concerned.
The center’s 10 a.m. advisory said the storm had deteriorated into a tropical depression and then had lost tropical characteristics.
All tropical storm warnings were discontinued.
The center of Ida, which had made an earlier landfall around 6:40 a.m. at Dauphin Island, Ala., in the southwest part of Mobile Bay, made a second landfall around 8 a.m. northwest of Bon Secour, Ala., about 15 miles west of the Florida state line.
By 10 a.m., the center was about 25 miles west-northwest of Pensacola.
It was moving northeast near 9 mph and was expected to generally move east until a front swallowed it on Wednesday.
It was expected to drop 3 to 6 inches of rain, and maybe as much as 8 inches in places, through Wednesday evening along the eastern Gulf Coast and into the southeast United States.
Top sustained winds were near 35 mph, according to the advisory, the final one the hurricane center plans to issue on Ida.
Meanwhile, forecasters are watching a new system several hundred miles north-northeast of the northern Leeward Islands, but give it less than a 30 percent chance of becoming a tropical depression or storm in the next 24 hours.
