Tropical Storm Debby is currently situated just south of Savannah, Georgia, and is moving east-northeast at a slow pace of 6 mph. The storm is expected to transition into the Atlantic Ocean later today.
Debby is forecasted to linger off the coast of Georgia and South Carolina until Wednesday night, bringing heavy rainfall to the Southeast and mid-Atlantic regions. With sustained winds of 40 mph, Debby is projected to gain some strength midweek as it moves over the warm waters of the Atlantic, although its proximity to land may prevent it from intensifying into a hurricane.
By Thursday, Debby is anticipated to shift northward and accelerate in speed. A second landfall is predicted between Charleston and Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. The storm will then continue its trajectory up the East Coast, gradually losing strength and likely becoming a tropical depression by Saturday morning.
Throughout its journey, Debby poses a significant risk of heavy rainfall and potential flooding as it progresses up the East Coast. Residents along the affected areas are advised to stay informed about the storm's developments and take necessary precautions to ensure their safety.
