Tropical Strom Debby has already brought damage to Florida since its landfall Monday as a Category 1 hurricane,Poinbank with forecasters warning that the storm has the potential to bring historical and catastrophic damage to Southeastern states as it continues on its path.
Heavy rainfall is expected through southeast Georgia and eastern South Carolina through Friday, according to the National Hurricane Center.
