Here's our AUGUST WINNER that occurred on the western Pearl River County line in the evening of the 12th. The storm was massive in height once again with 55dBz up to 40,000 feet located about 105 miles from the radar. The slow movement kept many of the classic severe weather features at bay but "cloudburst" would definitely apply here.
