The remnants of Tropical Depression Ida blew into Georgia on Tuesday, dumping rain on Rome and Floyd County most of the day.

While there were a few wrecks on the wet roads and sporadic reports of some trees downed because of the soggy ground, there were no major emergencies caused by the weather, according to Emergency Management Agency officials.

By Tuesday 10 p.m. night, Rome had received 2.20 inches of rain.

A flash flood watch is in effect through this morning.

Ida made landfall along Gulf Coast late Monday, and those areas received heavy rains, gusty winds and localized flooding — but not nearly the damage done from past hurricanes such as Katrina and Rita.

Tim Herrington, assistant director of the Floyd County Emergency Management Agency, said that the Rome area avoided any major damage that would have occurred with a long, drawn-out weather system over several days.

“We were fortunate in that the only real problems we had (Tuesday) were a few trees down and several roads had some periods of high water,” Herrington said.

“We did have a tree down on Radio Springs Road that hit a power pole and knocked down some lines, but it was just a localized outage.”

A wind advisory also has been issued for the area and is in effect until 7 p.m. tonight.

Here is short-term weather forecast for Floyd County, according to the NWS:

Today should be mostly cloudy with a 60-percent chance of rain and a high in the low 60s. The wind will be out of the north between 15 and 20 mph, with gusts as high as 30 mph.
