Show Notes
Tropical Storm Debby made landfall in South Carolina early Thursday morning and is bringing the impacts of heavy rain and flash flooding to North Carolina.
Chief Meteorologist Brad Panovich said while we can't rule out severe weather from Debby in the Charlotte area, the biggest impact so far is flooding. This threat is made worse by how slow Debby is moving north. Because it's crawling, the storm is dumping heavy rain for long periods.
A large portion of the Charlotte area is under a flash flood warning due to Debby's torrential rain. The flash flood warning is in effect for Anson, Cabarrus, Mecklenburg, Richmond, Stanly and Union counties in North Carolina, plus Chester, Chesterfield, Lancaster and York counties in South Carolina.
