A moist airmass combined with daytime heating and a decaying frontal boundary to bring localized flooding during the early evening across Lowndes County of the 14th. During the late afternoon and evening hours of the 15th, the same set-up helped to trigger some strong to severe storms. These storms produced some large hail to the size of golfballs and hen eggs, as well as some wind damage. These conditions continued into the 16th, where some hail occurred in the Mississippi Delta during the mid afternoon. Localized flash flooding occurred in Holmes County at that time.
