Tropical Storm Debby has come and gone, but in at least one county, they're still feeling the effects, and we're not talking storm damage.

The seasonal fireworks industry is taking a hit because the weather delayed many businesses from setting up its local tent sales.

At the TNT non-profit fireworks sale in front of the Walmart in Destin, sales clerks say they missed two days of money-making sales but are optimistic those last-minute procrastinators will help them at least break even from last year's sales which were reportedly $25,000 over the ten-day sale.
