Our JANUARY WINNER occurred near Hattiesburg about 75 miles southeast of the radar
as an operator defined was detected late in
the afternoon of the 26th in Lamar and Forrest Counties. The 4-Panel image below
reflects one of several volume scans where the VILs exceeded 45 kg/m*m and peaked at
52 kg/m*m(upper left quadrant) as baseball-sized hail was reported. The Mesocyclone was only reported
as an uncorrelated shear since it was identified only on the lowest elevation
angle.
