From the latest projections, the system has the potential to make landfall anywhere from Texas to Florida.

Presuming the @NHC_Atlantic is about to name 96L #Debby, I would not want to be the person that has to draw the cone: http://t.co/hnXg2ryP

All models keep Debby below hurricane strength through 132 hours. #debby pic.twitter.com/twA1HqM7

But, reaching hurricane strength is still possible. Especially if the Texas solution is correct, like the Euro suggests. #debby

Given the ECMWF's track record, my gut tells me that soon to be #Debby is headed for TX next week. Time will tell.
