A State of Emergency was activated in North Carolina Monday afternoon in anticipation of severe weather brought on by Debby.
The emergency declaration was made the day before potentially historic rainfall, and subsequent flooding was expected to reach the Carolinas. Debby first touched down as a Category 1 Hurricane in Florida the morning of Monday, Aug. 5, and was forecast to slowly move north and east along the coast through the rest of the week.
