Tracking the Tropics- November 14 2024 Track Update
SUMMARY: Meteorologist Noah Bergen from Fox 35 discusses Tropical Storm Sarah, currently at 40 mph, which may approach hurricane status by Friday. The storm’s track is uncertain, with potential impacts varying from a hurricane to a depression depending on its path along the Honduran coastline. It’s expected to move into the Gulf by Monday, possibly causing tropical development south of a certain latitude. Remnants of Sarah could merge with a cold front, leading to severe weather across parts of Florida by next Wednesday. While a hurricane threat is diminished, rain and potential wind from Sarah’s remnants are still possible.
FOX 35’s Storm Team Meteorologist Noah Bergren has the latest update from the National Hurricane Center on Tropical Storm Sara. See the latest track and what the models are suggesting for impacts to Florida towards the middle of next week.

Husband of South Florida woman who disappeared in Spain now facing new charge
SUMMARY: The family of missing South Florida woman Anna Kovich is a step closer to closure as her estranged husband, David Kovich, has been charged with her murder and kidnapping. Kovich has been in federal custody since May, but today’s charges provide hope for her family, who believe it may lead to answers about her disappearance in February while the couple was amid a bitter divorce. Surveillance footage allegedly shows him purchasing duct tape and spray paint in Spain. Kovich’s attorney contests the evidence, calling it insufficient. Kovich is scheduled for arraignment in federal court next week.

Tropical Storm Sara forecast: Will Caribbean system reach Florida?
SUMMARY: Fox 35 Storm Team meteorologist Brooks Garner reports that future tropical storm Sarah poses a reduced threat to Florida while likely causing catastrophic flooding in Honduras. The storm will bring significant rainfall, up to 40 inches, potentially resulting in mudslides and loss of life as it slowly moves westward over several days. Although there’s a slight chance it may briefly strengthen, the forecast indicates it will weaken as it reaches Mexico and eventually dissolve into a cold front by mid-next week, bringing some rain to Florida but no severe impacts. A beautiful weekend in Florida is expected before cooler weather arrives.
FOX 35 Storm Team Meteorologist Brooks Garner discusses the change in impacts expected for Florida from future Sara, which has developed in the Caribbean.
