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.

A change in the storm's path significantly changes Hurricane Sara’s timeline, placing doubts on whether it will survive early landfall.

Tropical Storm Sara formed in the Caribbean and was expect to hit Central America and Mexico before emerging in the Gulf and moving toward Florida.
