As the Southeast U.S. braces for more high winds and drenching downpours, many RV enthusiasts are wondering: Will Tropical Storm Debby impact our RV plans?
Shoulder season
Many RVers prefer to skip the busy summer months and instead travel once children have returned to school after summer break. With schools opening earlier in the fall, well before Labor Day, this “shoulder season” often proves to be prime time for RVers to hit the road.
Complications
This year, however, Hurricane [now Tropical Storm] Debby is definitely dampening RVers’ spirits as she continues her trek along the Southeastern U.S. with heavy rain and damaging winds. How can you know whether to adjust or even cancel your campground reservations? Keep this website bookmarked.
Latest updates
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has a site dedicated to Tropical Storm Debby. You can see the storm’s predicted path, get updated weather forecasts, and learn more about evacuation and shelter information.
Weather radio
In addition to the helpful NOAA website, it’s important to always carry a weather radio with you while RVing. This latest hurricane may not be the last of the season, and by having the correct and up-to-date information, you just may save your life.
Stay informed, stay safe, and plan accordingly.
##RVT1169
Thank you, Gail! 🙂 Sadly, we lack any rain at all in our current (8/7) 10-day forecast. 🤔😯 Perhaps Debby will relent and let us have some moisture. Meanwhile, thanks again for the links to NOAA’s monitoring of Debby, have a great day, safe travels, and safe stays! 🙂
