Where is Tropical Storm Debby?

Forecasters are predicting the developing system will strengthen into a tropical storm that could cause flooding in parts of Florida this weekend.

Potential tropical cyclone number four — which will likely intensify into Tropical Storm Debby — could drench the state with up to a foot of rain in some areas this weekend, according to the National Hurricane Center. Flash and urban flooding, as well as isolated river flooding, will be possible through Wednesday morning.

The west coast of Florida was under a tropical storm warning and watch Friday as the system approached. The center warned that some areas could experience tropical-storm-force winds and even a storm surge of 1 to 3 feet.
