Meridian sits in east-central Mississippi where Sowashee Creek runs through the city and Okatibbee Creek drains into Okatibbee Lake to the northwest, both of which can flood during intense Gulf moisture events. The region's soils are a mix of Selma chalk — a clay-rich marine sediment that shrinks and swells dramatically with moisture changes — causing foundation movement that stresses plumbing and creates water entry points in slab construction. Meridian receives an average of 52 inches of rain annually, with tropical storm remnants regularly bringing 6–10 inch rainfall totals that overwhelm the city's drainage infrastructure.
