00:00I know you mentioned that the Northeast will see some remnants of Debbie.
00:04What does that look like?
00:05Is that anything like the historic nature that Georgia and South Carolina are going
00:09to see?
00:10So at this time here on Monday, we don't expect it to be a historic storm for the Northeast,
00:14but there will be impacts expected probably Saturday or maybe Friday into Saturday across
00:19the mid-Atlantic and Northeast.
00:20Debbie, as we mentioned, will be the slow mover, but by Friday it should start to gain
00:24some forward speed and move off to the Northeast.
00:27It may go back offshore, but it looks like it will interact with a different storm coming
00:31through the Great Lakes, and that can spread a pretty impressive swath of rain across parts
00:35of the mid-Atlantic.
00:36Northeast, that includes places like Pennsylvania, Maryland, the Delmarva, New York City, up
00:41into southern New England.
00:43We could be talking about a few, maybe two, three, four inches of rain, which could be
00:47enough to cause pockets of flooding as well.
00:49Coastal areas might deal with some 40 to 50 mile an hour wind gusts, sort of like a nor'easter
00:53in many cases.
00:54So we're going to have to keep a close eye on that this week here, and we'll be doing
00:57that at AccuWeather throughout the week, keeping a close eye, not just on the historic flooding
01:00and the expected in the Carolinas, but the eventual impact to the Northeast.
01:04Dan, I want to look at the future just a little bit.
01:06Is there anything else on your radar when it comes to this hurricane season?
01:11So as AccuWeather has been predicting really since March, we expect this to be a very supercharged
01:16hurricane season with 20 or more named storms, and we've already obviously seen four.
01:23We are still very early on in the hurricane season.
01:26We are just entering August.
01:27The peak of the season is during the middle of September.
01:30So we have a long way to go here, and we do see plenty of more tropical systems on the
01:34horizon.
01:35There's a tropical wave that's moving into the Caribbean this week, and it could develop
01:39as it approaches the Western Caribbean and maybe moves into the Gulf of Mexico either
01:43late this week or this coming weekend.
01:45So we'll have to keep an eye on that.
01:46It looks like there's another tropical wave behind it.
01:48So we have certainly reached the point of the season now, after a bit of a three or
01:51four-week lull in most of July, where we have plenty to talk about here over the coming
01:55weeks.
