LIVE: Gulf Coast Braces for Historic Flooding as Hurricane Sally Makes Landfall | Your World Daily
(Sept. 15) Hurricane Sally crept toward the northern Gulf Coast early Tuesday as forecasters warned of potentially deadly storm surges and flash flooding with up to 2 feet (.61 meters) of rain and the possibility of tornadoes.
Forecasters said Sally should reach land near the Alabama-Mississippi state line by late Tuesday or early Wednesday.
In Gulfport, Mississippi, twin hurricane warning flags popped in the wind Tuesday morning at a marina and the sea had risen enough to cover an area normally used for bonfires in the sand.
Most boat slips at the marina were empty, and many businesses in town were closed, metal storm shutters or plywood covering the windows.
