La Ceiba, on the Caribbean coast of #Honduras, 556 millimeters (~22 inches) of rain in 24 hours ending this morning at 7 AM EST from Tropical Storm #Sara (via @DrJeffMasters @MichaelRLowry, video from meteorologist Francisco Argeñal). More rain to come.

Doesn't get more #Florida than this. A golfer hit his ball and it landed on the back of a large gator in the Twin Eagles Community of Collier County. I think you might want to take a drop...🐊⛳ Credit: Greg Irving

NEW ADVISORY: #Sara about the same intensity as of 4 PM. The NHC now is calling for the storm to dissipate by Day 5. Stick with @WINKNews for the latest.

Best option considering the circumstances. Kudos to the Yankees for doing that. No doubt the Florida summer heat and storms will make things interesting (and very sweaty). 🥵

The Tampa Bay Rays will play their 2025 home games at the New York Yankees' nearby spring training ballpark amid uncertainty about the future of hurricane-damaged Tropicana Field, Rays executives told The Associated Press. espn.com/mlb/story/_/id…



#BREAKING: Tropical Storm #Sara has formed in the Caribbean as of Thursday afternoon, 18th named storm of the 2024 Atlantic Hurricane Season. Models have shifted more west into the Yucatcan Peninsula compared to two days ago, which leads to a much different (more positive)…

Quick break from the tropics to tell you this weekend will be awesome in Southwest Florida. Front on Friday ushers in lower humidity and 50s / 60s for morning lows both Saturday and Sunday. 💯

#BREAKING: First cone is out for potential Tropical Storm #Sara soon in the Caribbean. Can't rule out this becoming a hurricane. Land interaction is going to be crucial for what this becomes or doesn't become. How close does it first get to Central America? How long does it spend…

#BREAKING: Potential Tropical System #19 has been designated in the Caribbean. First cone will be issued at the top of the hour, 4 PM ET. I'll have the latest on @WINKNews #Sara

More of a western shift recently in models, including the consensus below. Note that it hasn't formed yet and this could change depending on where the center forms. If this western trend sticks, it would spend more time of the Yucatan instead of the warm waters of the…

Only 3 hurricanes have made landfall during November in Florida since 1850. Most recently in 2022 with Nicole. Yankee and Kate were both Category 2 (100 mph) at landfall. @WINKNews

Well, the early look at future #Sara from models is less than ideal. Black line is the average of the average. Again, hasn't formed yet and things could change. Look for consistency and trends. Timing would be mid next week if it impacts Florida. @WINKNews

Aaanndddd we now have #Invest99L. That means we get track and intensity models every 6 hours. This will likely becoming #Sara in the days ahead. I'll keep you posted 24/7 on @WINKNews

FLORIDA FALL FRONT! 🍁 Another shot of cooler and drier air is on the way for this weekend with lows in the 40s for the Panhandle, 50s and 60s in Southwest Florida. Enjoy the nice weather while we have it! @WINKNews

TROPICAL UPDATE: Our GRAF model shows future #Sara organizing pretty quickly. Note the tropical storm-force wind field by Thursday. If it can avoid Central America, this does have hurricane potential in time. Still too early to make judgements on long range track, but this is one…

TROPICAL UPDATE: We're now red with an increasing 70% potential this forms in the days ahead. Next name is "Sara." Here are some thoughts: 1. Water temps are still plenty warm (well into the 80s) and above average for November across the Caribbean. Along with pockets of lower…
