A hurricane watch has been issued for part of Florida as a strengthening tropical system, soon to become Tropical Storm Debby, approaches the state over the weekend. Tropical Depression Four is forecast to strengthen while moving northward along the Florida Peninsula's Gulf coast this weekend, spreading rain, gusty winds and severe thunderstorms slowly northward. AccuWeather meteorologists warn that not only may the feature become a hurricane, but it may also later stall along the southeastern United States coast next week.

After becoming the Atlantic’s fourth named storm of the 2024 season on Saturday, Tropical Storm Debby was about to embark on what could be a week-long hydrological rampage across the coastal U.S. Southeast. Debby is predicted to make landfall on Monday morning in the Big Bend of Florida’s northeast Gulf Coast, bringing storm surge and high winds. But Debby’s greatest impact will likely arise from days of torrential rainfall, as steering currents may leave Debby stranded and lingering for days near the Southeast U.S. coast.
