What the National Weather Service wrote

Flash flooding resulted in water inside a home.

The wider storm

A weather pattern in the upper atmosphere favored the development of showers and thunderstorms across the local area. At the surface, a stalled frontal boundary stretched from west to east near the I-10 corridor and provided a focus for repeated thunderstorm development. Thunderstorms repeatedly developed and moved over the same areas along the boundary, producing very heavy rainfall across portions of coastal Mississippi over the two-day period and resulting in flash flooding.

Began near Picayune (30.5300, -89.6900).
