Meteorologist Myles Henderson’s First Warning Forecast
Tracking Debby as it moves up the East Coast later this week.
A mix of partly to mostly cloudy skies today with scattered showers and storms in the afternoon to evening. Highs will dip to the upper 80s, but it will still be humid.
Our rain chances will increase for the end of the week as the remnants of Hurricane Debby move up the East Coast. Expect widespread rain with scattered storms Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. Most of the region should see 3” to 6” of rainfall with locally higher totals possible. Strong to severe storms are possible, mainly for Thursday and Friday. Winds will kick up Thursday and Friday but should remain below tropical storm strength.
Based on the current forecast track, the remnants of Debby should move to our northeast through the day Saturday. We should see more sunshine and start to dry out on Sunday.
Highs will linger in the mid 80s for the second half of the week, but it will still be muggy.

Maximum sustained winds are near 40 mph with higher gusts. Some strengthening is forecast on Wednesday and Thursday while Debby drifts offshore.
