Monday's weather poses risk to land and sea, as clouds loom on the horizon and news of 111 mph wind gusts and a tornado emerge from the New Orleans area.
The National Weather Service is urging people to stay out of the water with a special marine warning in effect for up to 60 miles out from the coast on Monday, according to meteorologist Brian Daly.
Inland, strong storms are expected within the next couple of hours.
Approximately 2-4 inches of rain is expected on the coast, decreasing north of the interstate, with areas of heavier rain possible in localized areas.
Daly warned that winds in excess of 50 mph are possible, which can be especially dangerous to structures, limbs and more.
The storm that passed through New Orleans left 70,000 without power earlier today, according to GulfLive.com.
