'Life-threatening' Tropical Storm Debby takes aim at Florida's Gulf Coast
- Tropical Storm Debby is expected to whip up rain and high surf as it churns over Gulf Coast waters on Sunday, crawling north along Florida's coast before making landfall as a"life-threatening" hurricane on Monday, forecasters said.
It was crawling at 14 mph into the Gulf Coast about 260 miles south-southwest of Tampa, where its winds were expected to accelerate from 45 mph up to 70 mph or more as it gains strength and becomes a hurricane by Sunday night. "Now, I stand at six feet tall," Rhome said."So that's over my head," he said. Heavy rains of 10 inches with spots of 15 inches of rain could be expected, more if the storm slows down or stalls over land, he said.
Parts of the Gulf Coast counties Pasco Hernando and Citrus issued mandatory or voluntary evacuation orders on Saturday. Forecasters expect a large number of Atlantic hurricanes to form in the 2024 season, which began June 1, with four to seven major hurricanes forming out of 25 named storms. That is more than the record-breaking 2005 season that spawned hurricanes Katrina and Rita.
