RAINFALL: Debby is expected to produce an additional 1 to 3 inches
of rainfall with locally higher amounts, across portions of the
coastal Carolinas today, with locally considerable flooding
expected.
 
From portions of northern Virginia through Upstate New York, 2 to 4
inches of rainfall, with local amounts to 6 inches, are expected
through late tonight. This will likely result in areas of
considerable flash and urban flooding, as well as river flooding.
 
For portions of Northern New England, 1 to 3 inches of rain with
locally higher amounts are expected through Friday night. This will
result in isolated to scattered instances of flash flooding.

WIND: Wind gusts of 30-50 MPH will be possible into tonight
across portions of eastern Maryland, Delaware, southeast

coastal Connecticut, and far northeast New York into Vermont. Given
saturated ground conditions these winds may bring down trees and
result in isolated to scattered power outages.

Mid-Atlantic and Southern New England coast. These conditions are
likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions.
