On the evening of July 9, 2022, a cluster of thunderstorms was moving southeast across northern Hinds County. At approximately 9:39 PM CDT, a segment of the thunderstorm cluster resulted in rapidly intensifying winds at ground level. Damage from this corridor of enhanced wind, estimated to have maximum gusts to 80 mph, impacted initially near areas of the Castlewoods Country club near Castlewoods Boulevard, spreading outward primarily to the southeast. The damage across the area consisted primarily of trees down of varying varieties, some large. The most intense damage occurred near the golf course on the southeastern side of Castlewoods where numerous large pines were felled. Several homes in this area had minor to moderate gutter/siding damage along with numerous wooden fence segments blown over. Damage was noted to be divergent in nature, providing confidence in the straight-line wind nature of this event, from what was a likely downburst with rapidly descending winds that spread out upon reaching the surface. The corridor of damage continued east spreading out along highway 471 and southeast to just north of Grants Ferry Road with progressive reductions in damage, ending just beyond the highway where only small branches down and vegetative debris was found.
