The National Hurricane Center in Miami said Debby's top sustained winds were 45 mph (75 kph) at 8 p.m. EDT Monday and the storm was virtually stationary, centered about 30 miles (45 kms) south-southwest of Apalachicola. A tropical storm warning remains in effect for the Florida Gulf Coast from Destin to Englewood.
