According to catastrophe modeling firm AIR Worldwide, as of 8 a.m. today, Tropical Storm Debby was still a weak tropical storm on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale, but it was drenching northern Florida and parts of southeastern Georgia with intense rainfall.
According to the National Hurricane Center (NHC), the storm is situated about 120 miles northwest of Clearwater, Florida, and is moving slowly eastward towards Florida’s west coast at a rate of about 3 miles per hour with maximum sustained winds of 45 miles per hour and a minimum central pressure of 991 millibars.
The NHC’s most likely track shows Debby continuing to move east or east-northeast and make landfall as a tropical storm late tomorrow, June 27, along the coast of northwestern Florida. After landfall, Debby is expected to weaken fairly quickly to a tropical depression.
