A tropical depression in the Gulf of Mexico has strengthened into Tropical Storm Debby as it moves through the Gulf of Mexico toward Florida.
Forecasters at the National Hurricane Center said Saturday that the storm now has maximum sustained winds of 40 mph (65 kph). The storm was located about 100 miles (160 kilometers) west-southwest of Key West, Florida, and it was moving toward the northwest at 15 mph (24 kph).
Wind and thunderstorms have spread over a broad region, including southern Florida, the Florida Keys and the Bahamas.
Debby is likely to bring drenching rain and coastal flooding to much of Florida’s Gulf Coast by Sunday night, and predictions show the system could come ashore as a strong tropical storm or hurricane Monday and cross over northern Florida into the Atlantic Ocean.
Forecasters warn it could also drop heavy rains over north Florida and the Atlantic coasts of Georgia, South Carolina and North Carolina early next week.

Good evening Ron & The Lovely Casey Desantis & Beloved Family,
Its times like this when Florida is glad to have the 2028 POTUS Ron Desantis in charge and not some corrupt Dook 4 Brains Leftist Govornor who would look at such a storm as a way to award funding to his/her Dook 4 Brains Lefty bunkey hole buddies in the hopes of getting some of that money.
Thank you Ron & The Lovely Casey Desantis & Beloved Family,
ELVIS
