Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeTropical Storm Cindy developed over the central Gulf of Mexico on June 20th and moved generally northwest for the next few days before making landfall in southwest Louisiana near the Louisiana and Texas state line. ||Cindy was an asymmetric system as it moved through the central Gulf toward southwest Louisiana, resulting in minor to moderate impacts across southern Mississippi. The storm resulted in heavy rainfall, minor storm surge flooding, and isolated damage due to strong winds. One tornado was also confirmed on the Mississippi Gulf Coast.||The minimum sea level pressure of 1007.1 mb, along with the highest wind gust and highest sustained wind in southern Mississippi were all measured by the Gulfport Airport ASOS (KGPT). The highest wind gust recorded was 43 knots, or 49 mph, and the the maximum sustained wind in was 33 knots, or 38 mph. Tropical storm force winds were primarily experienced in gusts as squalls moved through the area. The winds did cause isolated minor damage to trees, roofs, and power lines. ||A storm tide of generally 2 to 4 feet occurred along the Gulf Coast from Harrison County through Jackson County. The highest measured storm tide was 4.06 ft MHHW at a National Ocean Service gauge at Bay Waveland in Hancock County. The elevated tides resulted in minor to moderate flooding mainly of low lying land, as well as some beach erosion. ||One long lived rain band resulted in very heavy rainfall across eastern Harrison County and western Jackson County. In these areas, many places reported 13 to 17 inches of rain, with a maximum of 18.74 inches reported by a CoCoRaHS observer in Ocean Springs. Elsewhere across the Mississippi coast, widespread rainfall totals of 7 to 10 inches were common. The heavy rainfall led to minor to moderate river flooding as well as flash flooding.||One tornado was confirmed in Harrison County when a waterspout came ashore from the Mississippi Sound near Biloxi.
