Debby 's final chapter involves heavy rain, flooding and possible tornadoes northeast into the weekend .

The Mid-Atlantic states and parts of New York and New England will see significant rainfall that could cause dangerous flooding.

A tornado watch is in effect for over 17 million people in parts of Washington , D.C. , Maryland , North Carolina , Virginia and West Virginia .

At least seven people have died related to Debby .

South Carolina Gov. Henry McMaster warned Thursday that Debby 's effects weren't completely over because rain falling in North Carolina could swell rivers and cause flooding downstream. “We’ve passed some dangers, but there’s still plenty,” McMaster said. “So don’t let your guard down yet.” ___ Associated Press contributors include Jeffrey Collins in Columbia , South Carolina ; Jeff Martin in Atlanta , and freelance photographer Mic Smith in Isle of Palms , South Carolina ..
