Hurricane Debby made landfall Monday along coastal Florida,Surfwin Trading Center bringing life-threatening storms and winds as heavy rains battered and flooded the region.

The Category 1 storm, the fourth named storm of an expected historic hurricane season, unleashed maximum sustained winds of 80 mph after it reached the state at 7 a.m. near the coastal town of Steinhatchee, according to the National Hurricane Center.
