How much rain will we get from Debby? Here's the latest weather forecast outlook.

Parts of the tri-state area may see 8 inches of rain in 7 days by the time we're through; strong winds are expected -- and a tornado can't be ruled out eitherMore soaking rainfall associated with the remnants of Tropical Depression Debby is expected to seize the tri-state area Friday, days afterThe weakened Debby will merge with a front and head north through Pennsylvania and New York before passing into Canada Thursday night and into Friday.

Rainfall rates of 1-2 inches an hour are possible again as they were earlier in the week, making flooding a chief concern associated with this system. The worst of the rainfall and storms is now expected to pass west of the NYC metro area. That shifts the greatest flood threat into the Mid-Hudson Valley, Catskills and Poconos.

In addition to the flood threat, severe storms could do damage Friday. The main concern will be damaging straight-line winds. Gusts over 50mph could snap tree limbs and knock down power lines.
