The 5 p.m. bulletin from the National Hurricane Center and the latest satellite imagery show that the center of Tropical Storm Debby is now over the very warm waters of the Gulf of Mexico. Yes, you read that correctly, the system is now a Tropical Storm as it became better organized, and the rainbands are better formed and with more thunderstorms embedded in them. A Hurricane warning is now in effect Florida Gulf coast from the Suwannee River to the Ochlockonee River, along the entire Big Bend coast.

Tropical storm warnings extend along the west coast of Florida from the southern Big Bend through Tampa Bay southward through the southern Keys. There is also a stretch from west of the Ochlockonee River to Indian Pass.

Preparations should be done across Central and North Florida by 8 a.m. Sunday, as the weather quickly deteriorates, winds will pick up and rain will become more frequent and torrential. It is on Sunday that the system will be making a northward turn, and then starting Sunday night there will be a turn toward the northeast. It is then that the system is expected to lose some speed. This time will be critical for the system to strengthen.

There will be a 12-hour period between Sunday evening and Monday morning where the storms will enter extremely warm waters. Water temperatures across the northeastern Gulf of Mexico are one of the warmest in the world, reaching close to 90 degrees. Debby will not only be traveling over these warm waters but will spend a significant amount of time there, enough to strengthen into a hurricane. The 5 p.m. National Hurricane Center’s bulletin shows Debby arriving as a category 1 hurricane shortly after noon on Monday in the Big Bend Area, likely in Taylor County. Keep in mind that landfall location could and will likely shift, so residents need to monitor this storm closely.
