Yesterday’s Rainfall
Tropics
A tropical depression could form at any time, as a well-organized system moves into the eastern Gulf over the next 24 hours. This system will then track eastward, away from Tennessee. Aside from a few clouds, we are not expecting impacts from this system to the Cumberland Plateau.
The next named storm will be Debby.
