Maximum sustained winds are 55 kt with gusts to 65 kt, and the minimum central pressure is 992 mb. Debby will strengthen to a hurricane near 29.1N 84.4W Mon morning, move inland to 30.5N 83.8W Mon afternoon, and weaken to a tropical storm near 31.3N 83.0W Tue morning. On the forecast track, the center of Debby will move across the northeastern Gulf of Mexico through tonight and reach the Florida Big Bend coast around midday Monday.

Debby is expected to become a hurricane tonight, with additional strengthening likely before it reaches the Florida Big Bend coast on Monday. Weakening is expected on Monday and Tuesday after Debby moves inland. As Debby moves N of the area, a ridge will build again across the Gulf waters allowing for generally gentle to moderate winds over most of the basin. $$ GMZ040-050915- NW Gulf including Stetson Bank- 513 PM EDT Sun Aug 4 2024 .TONIGHT...Variable winds less than 5 kt, becoming S 10 kt late.
