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.

Tropical Storm Sara formed Thursday in the Caribbean, and is poised to deliver "potentially catastrophic" rainfall in Honduras in particular. It's not yet clear if it will threaten the Gulf Coast, though it's possible.

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