An area of low pressure began to organize from a tropical disturbance on June 16, 2017 in the western Caribbean Sea near the coast of Nicaragua and Honduras. The area of low pressure continued to move northwest towards the Yucatan Peninsula throughout the weekend and into Monday, June 19. On Monday afternoon, the low pressure emerged into the southern Gulf of Mexico and the National Hurricane Center (NHC) designated the system as Potential Tropical Cyclone #3 as it became better organized. The disturbance moved slowly northwestward and at 1pm CDT on June 20th, the system gained tropical storm strength and became Tropical storm Cindy with max sustained winds of 45mph.
Cindy remained nearly stationary throughout the rest of the afternoon on the 20th. Later that night, Cindy strengthened to have maximum sustained winds of 60mph and the storm began a slow northwest track. On the morning of June 21, Cindy weakened slightly to have maximum sustained winds of 50mph continuing on a northwest track. Later that evening, a more north-northwestward track was observed as Cindy began moving closer the coast (near the border of Texas and Louisiana) with heavy rains continuing to be an issue along the northern Gulf Coast.
The center of Tropical Storm Cindy made landfall between Cameron, Louisiana and Port Arthur, Texas in the early morning hours of June 22 with maximum sustained winds between 40-50mph. Tropical storm force winds extended up to 70 miles from the center of circulation! Cindy continued to move along the Texas and Louisiana border producing heavy rains across the northern Gulf Coast. Cindy was downgraded to a tropical depression on June 22 and the final advisory was issued at 10am as the center was moving across northern Louisiana. The remnants continued to move north to northeast into Arkansas and Tennessee.
Unfortunately, there were two deaths directly related to Tropical Storm Cindy. On the 21st, a child was killed in the Gulf of Mexico near Fort Morgan (Baldwin County, AL) when a large wave hit a large log and caused it to hit the child in the head. On the 23rd, a man drowned in the Gulf of Mexico near Fort Morgan while attempting to rescue two children in distress.
Summary of all Local Storm Reports (LSRs) across the area during Tropical Storm Cindy.
Tropical Storm Cindy made landfall well to the west of our area, but significant impacts were felt across the region. The majority of this document will focus on the impacts from flooding (including coastal flooding) across southeast Mississippi, southwest Alabama and northwest Florida. Below are some of the regional impacts...
Jump to - Rainfall, Wind, Storm Surge, Tornado, Post-Tropical Cyclone Report, or Additional Information sections.
The outer rainbands of Tropical Storm Cindy began dropping heavy rain on the north-central Gulf Coast during the late evening hours on June 19 with the risk of flash flooding ramping up across the area. These outer rainbands continued to produce training lines of heavy rain across the area (far away from the center of circulation) through the day and into the evening hours on June 20th. Flash Flood Warnings were issued shortly after 10pm on June 20 for Mobile and Baldwin Counties in Alabama and Perry and Greene Counties in Mississippi. These Flash Flood Warnings persisted until Cindy moved out of the area.
Several locations across the area observed high storm total rainfall amounts for the duration of the event. The image above shows the storm total rainfall across the region with pockets of 10"+ across all three states in our area. Storm total rainfall amounts of 8-10" occurred across Santa Rosa and Escambia Counties in the northwest Florida panhandle. 9.58" storm total rainfall occurred at NAS Whiting Field, 9.46" near Gonzalez, and 8.58" at the Pensacola International Airport. In Mobile County, rainfall amounts of 8-10” occurred near Saraland with a storm total rainfall report of 8.97” at a CoCoRAHS site near Saraland. Clarke County EMA in southwest Alabama had reports of 11.5" in Coffeeville and 11.37" in Thomasville. Across southeast Mississippi, radar estimated storm total rainfall amounts of 10-15"+ with measurements of 8.5" in Wiggins, 7.57" near Perkinston, and 6.57" in McLain.
Street and river flooding occurred across much of the area during Tropical Storm Cindy and led to numerous road closures. Across southern Alabama, the Styx River at Elsanor rose to Moderate Flood Stage, while both Murder and Burnt Corn Creeks observed minor river flooding. Portions of Brewton in Escambia County, AL were underwater near Murder and Burnt Corn Creeks. Numerous roads were closed due to flooding with reports of several washed out roads across Clarke County. One road was washed out due to a pond dam that breached with reports of two roads collapsing during the height of the event. Numerous road closures due to flash flooding also occurred across Butler, Covington, and Crenshaw Counties. Water was reported over roads in both Washington and Choctaw Counties as well.
Moderate river flooding occurred across southeast Mississippi on the Pascagoula River at Merrill, Leaf River at McLain, and Chickasawhay River at Leaksville. A historic, abandoned bridge that spanned the Chicasawhay River north of Leakesville collapsed due to the rapidly rising waters. This Facebook video from Mississippi Department of Transportation (MDOT) shows how extensive the fooding was across parts of George County, MS. To the right is an aerial view of the extensive flooding across George County via the George County EMA and Central Volunteer Fire Department Fire Chief. Below are more views of the flooding across George County via the George County EMA and Basin Volunteer Fire Department Fire Chief. Further north in Wayne County, numerous roads were closed due to flash flooding during the height of the storm.
Across northwest Florida, moderate river flooding occurred along the Big Coldwater Creek at Milton. Minor river flooding occurred along the Escambia River at Century, Perdido River at Barrineau Park, Shoal River at Crestview, and Blackwater River at Baker. According to the Florida Forest Service, significant flooding occurred throughout the western part of the Blackwater River State Forest. This flooding led to the closure of numerous major roads across that area due to the concern for flood damage and high water levels at several local bridges. The picture to the right shows one example of the flooding at Wolfe Creek along Springhill Rd via the Santa Rosa County EMA Facebook page. Widespread flooding (similar to the picture on the right) led to numerous roads becoming impassable with road closures across the northwest Florida panhandle during Tropical Storm Cindy.
Impacts from the wind were fairly minimal across the region, but there were some scattered power outages and trees down. Several reports of trees and powerlines down across the coastal counties and reports of trees blocking roads in Clarke County, AL during Cindy. The strongest winds occurred along the immediate coastline where the onshore flow produced the highest wind gusts. The highest wind gust observed during Cindy was 52mph at the Middle Bay Lighthouse (Mobile Bay) around 214pm on the 21st of June. Elsewhere, along the Alabama and western Florida panhandle coastline, peak wind gusts of 40-50mph were common. The highest observed wind gusts started the morning of the 21st at coastal and marine sites (Buoy 42012, Dauphin Island, Okaloosa Pier, and Destin) and lasted through the early afternoon hours on the 22nd at sites further inland (Crestview, Evergreen, and Andalusia). Some of the higher wind gusts reported across the area are as follows:

STORM SURGE & COASTAL FLOODING
Coastal flooding and storm surge caused roads across southern Alabama and northwest Florida to close during Tropical Storm Cindy. Peak storm surge inundation was generally 2-3 feet based on official tide gauges across coastal Alabama and Escambia County in northwest Florida. The highest values across our area were observed in Mobile County where Chickasaw Creek measured a storm tide of 3.07 feet (MHHW). Official NOAA/NOS/CO-OPS tide gauges were used to measure the maximum storm surge and storm tide across the area during Tropical Storm Cindy. Time series plots from several of these NOAA/NOS/CO-OPS tide gauges across coastal Alabama and northwest Florida can be viewed below.
In Mobile County, Dauphin Island Parkway north of the Dog River Bridge experienced coastal flooding near high tide on the 22nd. 1-2 feet of inundation occurred on Bienville Blvd on the west end of Dauphin Island near high tide on both the 21st and 22nd. Shell Belt Rd in the Bayou La Batre and Coden communities was covered in water at times during the event. Both the eastbound and westbound lanes of the Causeway over Mobile Bay (Highway 90) near the I-10 interchange were closed due to coastal flooding during the height of the event. Across the bay in Baldwin County, a sidewalk near the Fairhope pier was damaged due to a combination of coastal flooding and battering waves. There was also standing water from coastal flooding across Bayfront Park Pavilion in Daphne.
Across northwest Florida, Highway 399 closed due to coastal flooding. The Fort Pickens, Santa Rosa, Okaloosa, and Davis Bayou areas within the Gulf Islands National Seashore all closed during Tropical Storm Cindy. Below are pictures from the Gulf Islands National Seashore Facebook page showing the extent of the flooding in the Fort Pickens and Opal Beach areas.
Cindy spawned at least five tornadoes and numerous waterspouts across the area. Four of the five tornadoes were brief and rated EF0, while one tornado was rated EF1. The EF1 tornado in Covington County, AL produced significant tree damage in spots across its 5 mile track. Minor siding and roof damage was observed along the path of this tornado near Onycha, AL in Covington County.
The remaining four EF0 tornadoes occurred in Okaloosa County, FL; Escambia County, AL; Baldwin County, AL; and Clarke County, AL. The tornadoes near Parker Springs, AL (in the Conecuh National Forest) in Escambia County and near Whatley, AL in Clarke County mainly produced tree damage. The tornado near Fort Walton Beach in Okaloosa County produced minor damage to a few structures, as well as power line and tree damage. The last EF0 tornado near Summerdale, AL in Baldwin County was observed on video via a storm spotter. This tornado moved across an open field just west of the Beach Express Rd and there was no reported damage.
