Tropical Storm Debbie was a weak tropical storm that developed from a poorly-organized tropical depression that formed off the coast of Guatemala. The storm made landfall near New Orleans as a tropical storm and dissipated rapidly just after landfall.
[edit] Storm History
On September 24, a weak tropical depression was observed off the coast of Guatemala. Though Hurricane Hunter aircraft reported a strangely low pressure of 1003 mbar (hpa;29.92 inHG)), no closed circulation was observed. The depression remained weak but it dropped moderate rainfall in Swan Island and coastal Honduras.[1]
The depression then crossed the extreme northeastern tip of the Yucatan Peninsula on the night of September 25 and entered the Gulf of Mexico with an increase of pressure with no development. The depression's slow northwestward motion turned slightly northward on September 26. On the morning of September 28, the depression intensified slightly and barely attained Tropical Storm intensity on the same day. Radar observations detected a very poorly-organized structure, mostly an extensive area of low pressure. [1]
