| Episode Narrative |
Gustav brought tropical depression conditions to southeast Mississippi as it moved south of the area. |
| Event Narrative |
As hurricane Gustav moved south of the area, tropical depression conditions spread into southeast Mississippi. The winds increased during the early morning of September 1 and ended during the early afternoon as Gustav moved farther away. No damage was reported from the winds. Several mesonet sites had sustained winds of 20-30 MPH with higher gusts in the south parts of the county. Rainfall estimates across the area were 3-5 inches which resulted in some minor street flooding. Parts of southeast Mississippi were put under a tropical storm wind warning in the early morning hours of August 31 and the warning continued in effect until the late evening of September 1. |
