Tropical Storm Sara was previously forecast to become a major hurricane, though now the biggest threat Florida faces is rain.

Tropical Storm Sara formed this afternoon and threatens to bring "life-threatening and potentially catastrophic flash flooding and mudslides" to Honduras throughout the weekend, according to the latest update from the National Hurricane Center. A turn toward Florida is still possible, forecasters said.

Despite the storm’s lack of a well-defined center, it will generate profound rainfall across Honduras, western Nicaragua, eastern El Salvador, Belize, parts of Guatemala and the Mexican state of Quintana Roo through Monday as it gradually tracks north.
