Wider weather episode
As an upper-level low pressure system moved over central parts of the country, a few storm systems moved across the state of Mississippi. These brought rounds of severe thunderstorms and heavy rain to the region, eventually leading to the first wave of significant flooding in Mississippi this month. Over 200 homes were flooded in portions of Bolivar and Sunflower Counties.
