| episode_narrative | Hurricane Ike emerged into the southeast Gulf of Mexico as a category 1 hurricane on September 9th after earlier being a major hurricane as it moved across the Caribbean. Ike gradually intensified and developed an unusually large wind field as it tracked northwest across the Gulf over the next three days. Ike made landfall as a category 2 hurricane during the early morning hours on September 13th along the northern end of Galveston Island, Texas. Mainly tropical storm force wind gusts associated with Ike affected coastal Mississippi although sustained winds of nearly tropical storm force were measured right along the coast. The main effect of Ike on coastal Mississippi was the storm surge which affected sections of the coast, primarily Hancock and Harrison Counties. ||A storm surge ranging from 3 to nearly 6 feet above normal occurred along the coast. The unusually high storm surge generated by the distant hurricane affected low-lying coastal areas flooding roadways, low lying properties and some structures. ||The highest wind gust recorded in coastal Mississippi was 48 mph at the Gulfport-Biloxi Airport ASOS site. The highest sustained wind of 37 mph was recorded at the same site. The minimum sea level pressure measured in coastal Mississippi was 1008.4 millibars at Bay Waveland Yacht Club. Rainfall across the area was mainly one inch or less. |
