Deadly Tropical Storm Debby continues to lash Florida and the Southeast with damaging wind gusts and flooding rain after making landfall as a Category 1 hurricane early Monday morning, and thatâs having a major impact on travel for thousands of people hoping to catch a flight to or from places like Tampa and Orlando in Florida, and Charlotte in North Carolina.
Debby is now a tropical storm over North Florida. It missed Tallahassee, the largest population center in the area, but will bring relentless rain to areas east of there as it tiptoes into Georgia and eventually the Carolinas.
