FOX 13 Meteorologist Jim Weber is still watching Tropical Storm Debby, which was sitting just off the coast of South Carolina around noon on Wednesday. He says there is a lot of dry air wrapped around the system and that will help weaken the storm, lessening the threat of torrential rain. Weber added that while there will be band of heavy rain, they won?t be as widespread as they could?ve been if there wasn?t all the dry air. However, since Tropical Storm Debby is over warm water, it is strengthening. Winds were at 60 miles an hour Wednesday afternoon and it was moving to the northeast at five miles an hour. Weber said it will eventually make a U-turn and move back toward the coast Wednesday night and into Thursday morning. Weber is also watching another area of interest working its way across the Caribbean. It has a 10% chance of developing over the next week but will not impact Florida.
