DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
----------------------
At 1100 PM EDT (0300 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Debby was
located near latitude 31.1 North, longitude 82.1 West. Debby is
moving toward the northeast near 7 mph (11 km/h). A turn toward
the east is expected on Tuesday, followed by a turn to the north at
a slow forward speed on Wednesday. On the forecast track, the center
will move across southeastern Georgia tonight, and then off the
Georgia coast Tuesday and Wednesday, and approach the South
Carolina coast on Thursday.
Maximum sustained winds are near 45 mph (75 km/h) with higher gusts.
Some slight weakening is forecast tonight or early Tuesday. Some
re-strengthening is possible on Wednesday and Thursday when Debby
is off the southeastern U.S. coast.
Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 115 miles (185 km)
from the center.
The estimated minimum central pressure is 997 mb (29.44 inches).
HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
Key messages for Debby can be found in the Tropical Cyclone
Discussion under AWIPS header MIATCDAT4 and WMO header WTNT44 KNHC.
WIND: Tropical storm conditions are expected over portions of the
tropical storm warning area along the Florida and Georgia Atlantic
coast through early Tuesday. Tropical storm conditions are
expected along the coast of South Carolina within the tropical
storm warning area by late tonight or early Tuesday. Tropical
storm conditions are possible within the tropical storm watch area
in North Carolina beginning Wednesday night.
STORM SURGE: The combination of storm surge and tide will cause
normally dry areas near the coast to be flooded by rising waters
moving inland from the shoreline. The water could reach the
following heights above ground somewhere in the indicated areas if
the peak surge occurs at the time of high tide...
Mouth of the St. Mary's River to Cape Fear, NC...2-4 ft
For a complete depiction of areas at risk of storm surge inundation,
please see the National Weather Service Peak Storm Surge Graphic,
available at hurricanes.gov/graphics_at4.shtml?peakSurge.
RAINFALL: Debby is expected to produce potentially historic
rainfall totals of 10 to 20 inches, with maximum amounts of 30
inches, bringing areas of catastrophic flooding across portions of
eastern Georgia, the coastal plain of South Carolina, and southeast
North Carolina through Wednesday. Across portions of central and
northeast North Carolina, 6 to 12 inches of rainfall, with local
amounts to 18 inches, are expected through Saturday morning. This
rainfall will likely result in areas of considerable flash and urban
flooding, with significant river flooding expected.
An additional scattered 1 to 2 inches of rainfall, with maximum
amounts of 4 inches is possible across western portions of the
Central Florida Peninsula which may aggravate any ongoing flooding
conditions across that area.
For a complete depiction of forecast rainfall and flash flooding
associated with Debby, please see the National Weather Service
Storm Total Rainfall Graphic, available at
hurricanes.gov/graphics_at4.shtml?rainqpf and the Flash Flood Risk
graphic at hurricanes.gov/graphics_at4.shtml?ero. For a list of
rainfall observations (and wind reports) associated this storm, see
the companion storm summary at WBCSCCNS4 with the WMO header ACUS44
KWBC or at the following link:
www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov/discussions/nfdscc4.html.
TORNADOES: A few tornadoes are possible over southeastern Georgia
and coastal South Carolina tonight through Tuesday.
SURF: Swells generated by Debby are expected to affect much of the
Gulf coast of Florida through tonight. Swells will continue to
affect the Southeast U.S. coast through the middle of the week.
These conditions are likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip
current conditions. Please consult products from your local weather
office.

800 PM EDT Mon Aug 5 2024
For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:
Active Systems:
The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Tropical
Storm Debby, centered inland near the Florida/Georgia border.
Western Caribbean Sea and Southwestern Gulf of Mexico:
Showers and thunderstorms associated with a tropical wave located
over the eastern Caribbean Sea remain disorganized. Any development
of this system should be slow to occur during the next couple of
days while it moves westward over the eastern and central Caribbean
Sea. Environmental conditions are expected to become more conducive
for development later this week as the system moves across the
western Caribbean Sea or the southern Gulf of Mexico.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...low...30 percent.

TCDAT4
Tropical Storm Debby Discussion Number 14
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL042024
500 PM EDT Mon Aug 05 2024
Debby continues to move over land, and based on surface synoptic
and radar observations the center is estimated to be near the
Florida/Georgia border. Assuming a continued weakening since
landfall, the intensity estimate has been reduced to 45 kt, which is
reasonably consistent with the latest WSR-88D radar velocities
aloft.
Debby continues to move through a weakness in the subtropical high,
and the forward motion has slowed to about 035/6 kt. The cyclone
is expected to turn eastward, while moving quite slowly, in a
region of weak steering currents for the next couple of days. This
motion should bring the center of the system back over water by
late Tuesday. In around 72 hours, a mid-level ridge to the east
of Debby is forecast to build somewhat, and as a result, the center
should move inland over South Carolina and turn northward and
northeastward over the eastern U.S. for the remainder of the
forecast period. The NHC track forecast is similar to the previous
one and is in good agreement with the corrected model consensus,
HCCA, guidance.
The tropical cyclone should continue to weaken while it moves over
land for the next day or so. By late Tuesday, assuming the center
of the system moves back over water, some re-intensification is
forecast. The NHC forecast continues to show only modest
restrengthening due to the uncertainties, although this may be
conservative.
Given the sluggish forward motion of Debby, extremely large amounts
of rainfall over the Southeastern U.S. is anticipated.
Key Messages:
1. Potentially historic heavy rainfall across southeast Georgia and
the coastal plain of South Carolina through Saturday morning will
likely result in areas of catastrophic flooding. Heavy rainfall will
likely result in considerable flooding impacts from portions of
central and northern Florida and across portions of central and
northeast North Carolina through Saturday morning.
2. Dangerous storm surge and tropical storm conditions will spread
northward along the southeast U.S. coast from northeastern Florida
to North Carolina through the middle of the week. Storm Surge and
Tropical Storm watches and warnings have been issued for portions of
these areas. Residents in the Storm Surge watch and warning area
should follow any advice given by local officials.
3. In portions of Florida where Debby has passed, deadly hazards
remain, including downed power lines and flooded areas. Ensure
generators are properly ventilated to avoid carbon monoxide
poisoning. Exercise caution when using chainsaws and power tools,
and drink plenty of water to avoid heat exhaustion.

offshore of the South Carolina coast by late Tuesday and Wednesday,
and approach the South Carolina coast on Thursday.
Maximum sustained winds have decreased to near 50 mph (85 km/h)
with higher gusts. Additional weakening is forecast through late
Tuesday. Some re-strengthening is possible on Wednesday and
Thursday.
Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 140 miles (220 km)
from the center.
The estimated minimum central pressure is 994 mb (29.36 inches).
HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
Key messages for Debby can be found in the Tropical Cyclone
Discussion under AWIPS header MIATCDAT4 and WMO header WTNT44 KNHC.
WIND: Tropical storm conditions are expected over portions of the
tropical storm warning area along the Florida and Georgia Atlantic
coast through tonight. Tropical storm conditions are expected along
the coast of South Carolina within the tropical storm warning area
by late tonight or early Tuesday.
STORM SURGE: The combination of storm surge and tide will cause
normally dry areas near the coast to be flooded by rising waters
moving inland from the shoreline. The water could reach the
following heights above ground somewhere in the indicated areas if
the peak surge occurs at the time of high tide...
Mouth of the St. Mary's River to Cape Fear, NC...2-4 ft
For a complete depiction of areas at risk of storm surge inundation,
please see the National Weather Service Peak Storm Surge Graphic,
available at hurricanes.gov/graphics_at4.shtml?peakSurge.
RAINFALL: Debby is expected to produce rainfall totals of 6 to 12
inches, with maximum amounts of 18 inches, across portions of
central and northern Florida as well as central and northeast North
Carolina through Wednesday morning. This rainfall will likely
result in areas of considerable flash and urban flooding, with
significant river flooding expected.
Across portions of southeast Georgia, the coastal plain of South
Carolina, and southeast North Carolina, 10 to 20 inches of rainfall,
with local amounts to 30 inches, are expected through Saturday
morning. This potentially historic rainfall will likely result in
areas of catastrophic flooding.
For a complete depiction of forecast rainfall and flash flooding
associated with Hurricane Debby, please see the National Weather
Service Storm Total Rainfall Graphic, available at
hurricanes.gov/graphics_at4.shtml?rainqpf and the Flash Flood Risk
graphic at hurricanes.gov/graphics_at4.shtml?ero. For a list of
rainfall observations (and wind reports) associated this storm, see
the companion storm summary at WBCSCCNS4 with the WMO header ACUS44
KWBC or at the following link:
www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov/discussions/nfdscc4.html.
TORNADOES: A few tornadoes are possible over southeastern Georgia
and coastal South Carolina this evening through Tuesday.
SURF: Swells generated by Debby are expected to affect much of the
Gulf coast of Florida through tonight. Swells will continue to
affect the Southeast U.S. coast through the middle of the week.
These conditions are likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip
current conditions. Please consult products from your local weather
office.
