Water woes: Tropical Storm Sara Highlights Florida’s Escalating Flood Crisis

Tropical Storm Sara is set to bring 6–10 inches of rain to Florida’s west coast, exacerbating ongoing flooding issues. While the storm lacks high winds or a significant storm surge, its impact underscores the relentless cycle of damage and rebuilding caused by repeated storms. With Gulf waters still at 80°F, more storms could develop before hurricane season ends on November 30, further straining Florida’s infrastructure and recovery efforts.
