Tropical Storm Debby made its second landfall near Bulls Bay, South Carolina, early Thursday morning, following its initial landfall as a Category 1 hurricane in Florida. The storm is producing heavy rainfall, with forecasts indicating an additional 1 to 4 inches expected, leading to flash flooding and major flood threats across South Carolina, North Carolina, and Virginia. Wind gusts of up to 50 mph are reported, and the storm is moving northwest at 5 mph.
