🌀TROPICS UPDATE: Debby has increased and additional strengthening is forecast, and Debby is expected to become a hurricane by Sunday night, before it reaches the Florida Big Bend coast.

NOAA and Air Force Reserve Hurricane Hunter aircraft have been investigating Debby during the past few hours and have found that the winds have increased slightly and per dropsonde data indicate that the central pressure has fallen to 1003 mb.

The track guidance is in good agreement during this period, and the NHC track has only been shifted slightly east to account for a slight relocation of the initial position based on the aircraft data.

After 2-3 days, the steering currents around Debby collapse, and the cyclone is expected to creep northeastward at less than 5 mph across northern Florida to near the coasts of Georgia and South Carolina by day 5.

There is high confidence that the storm will not be moving very fast, and this slow motion will have major implications for the associated hazards, particularly heavy rainfall and flooding.

Most of the regional hurricane models are showing Debby reaching hurricane strength before it reaches the coast. while the statistical-dynamical SHIPS and LGEM models have increased to the
86-92-mph range.

In addition, the Rapid Intensification indices are showing a 1-in-3 chance of a 52-mph increase in intensity over the next 36 hours.

Based on these model data, the NHC intensity forecast has been increased to 85 mph in 36 hours just before the center of Debby is expected to reach the coast.

Weakening is anticipated after landfall, but Debby's intensity on days 3 through 5 is highly uncertain and is dependent on whether the center moves over the Atlantic waters and for how long.

Stay tuned for more updates!

Expect delays. Check online before you head to the airport.

The IT malfunction that caused disruptions worldwide for airlines and airports today has been almost completely resolved at KLM. Air traffic to and from Schiphol can be fully resumed. However, many flights have been delayed or canceled out of necessity. These disruptions in the schedule are expected to continue this evening (CET) and into the weekend as we restart our flight operations. As a result, it is possible that we will need to cancel more flights to get the operation back on track. We advise passengers to keep an eye on flight information on the KLM.com website or in the KLM app. We are doing everything we can to ensure our passengers reach their travel destinations.

(NL) De IT-storing waar onder andere luchtvaartmaatschappijen en luchthavens vandaag wereldwijd hinder van ondervonden, is bij KLM zo goed als opgelost. Het verkeer van en naar Schiphol kan volledig worden hervat. Wel zijn veel vluchten noodgedwongen vertraagd en geannuleerd. Deze verstoringen in de dienstregeling werken naar verwachting vanavond (CET) en dit weekend door bij het weer opstarten van ons vliegschema. Hierdoor is het mogelijk dat we meer vluchten moeten annuleren om de operatie op orde te krijgen. We raden passagiers aan om de vluchtinformatie op de website KLM.com of in de KLM-app in de gaten te houden. Wij zetten alles op alles om onze passagiers alsnog naar hun reisbestemming te vervoeren.
