Even though the worst of Tropical Storm Debby's remnants are expected to move west of New Jersey, the Garden State still faces serious threats of strong winds, strong thunderstorms, flash flooding and isolated tornadoes on Friday, Aug. 9, forecasters say.Forecasters say some of the thunderstorms that develop Friday, especially in the afternoon and at night, could generate 60 mph wind gusts, strong enough to knock down trees and power lines.
A post-tropical cyclone no longer has tropical characteristics, but it can still pack a big punch with heavy downpours and strong winds. Camden, Gloucester, Hunterdon, Mercer, Middlesex, Morris, Somerset and northwestern Burlington counties are under wind advisory from 6 a.m. to 11 p.m. Friday, with forecasters calling for southerly winds of 15 to 25 mph and gusts up to 50 mph.
Sussex and Warren counties are under a wind advisory from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. Friday, with southeast winds 15 to 25 mph and occasional gusts of 40 to 50 mph expected.
