Florida braces for flooding from a possible tropical storm
A storm system brewing over Cuba on Friday could bring torrential rain and flooding to the Florida peninsula this weekend. The forecast is expecially concerning for low-lying coastal and urban areas that were inundated in June. The National Hurricane Center says there's a 90% chance of a tropical storm hitting the southwest Florida coast Saturday night. Potential Tropical Cyclone Four could become Debby by then, but it doesn’t take a name for flooding to become dangerous. Meanwhile, forecasters say Hurricane Carlotta has formed over the Pacific Ocean and continues to strengthen as it moves away from Mexico.
