Not again?!?! Extraordinary late-season Tropical Storm Sara Menaces Florida

Tropical Storm Sara is poised to threaten Florida’s western coast, prompting red flag warnings. Doug McIntyre explains that the storm could intensify due to Gulf waters exceeding 80 degrees Fahrenheit, a key factor in storm development. Earlier hurricanes this year, Milton and Helene, followed a similar pattern and caused huge damage. If Sara strengthens, it will be among the latest hurricanes of the season in history, capping an extraordinary period that also saw Category 5 Hurricane Berea devastate Mexico and Houston.
