Julia is the first tropical cyclone on record to be named while over land in Florida, according to Dr. Phil Klotzbach. The main concern from Julia will be heavy rain along the immediate Southeast coast through Thursday, which could result in flooding.

Julia will continue to crawl northward, while weakening to a tropical depression later Wednesday. By Thursday, Julia is expected to become a remnant low over Georgia. READ MORE
