Hurricane Debby: One year later

SAVANNAH, Ga. (WTOC) - August 5th marks one year since Hurricane Debby made landfall as a category 1 hurricane in Florida and became a tropical storm before reaching Savannah.

It’s also the same time we started feeling initial impacts in the Coastal Empire and Lowcountry.

According to the National Weather Service, Debby weakened to a tropical storm as it slowly moved across Southeast Georgia.

But, it had lasting impacts for days from flooding in several of our counties.
