Northern Florida, the coastal regions of Georgia and South Carolina and parts of North Carolina are bracing for severe rain and catastrophic flooding.
A home in Rubonia, Fla., is surrounded by floodwater after Tropical Storm Debby swept through the area, Monday, Aug. 5, 2024, in Bradenton, Fla. Northern Florida , the coastal regions of Georgia and South Carolina and parts of North Carolina are bracing for severe rain and catastrophic flooding this week as the Debby storm system moves up and east.
That would be a record-setting rainfall, shattering the record from a tropical system in 2018's Hurricane Florence. More than 23 inches of rain was recorded in South Carolina after that storm hit the Carolinas. "We don't know how much rain is going to fall. But we have to prepare for the worst," Hilton Head Island Mayor Alan Perry said on a video posted to Facebook. "If that happens, we will see an event we have never seen on Hilton Head before."
