SUMMARY: South Florida officials are preparing for heavy rain and urging residents to clear debris from drains. In Dania Beach, families like Julio’s are frustrated with frequent flooding, having experienced multiple incidents. As rain is forecasted, homeowners have placed sandbags around their properties for protection. City leaders recently initiated construction on a new drainage system to better manage stormwater. For now, residents are advised to secure trash cans and other items to prevent blocked drains. Many are left hoping for minimal flooding, as they deal with the stress of potential water intrusion into their homes.

The South Florida Water Management District began preparations and encouraged others – residents and municipalities – to follow suit.

SUMMARY: A hurricane is developing in the Gulf of Mexico, with a 70% chance of becoming Tropical Storm Milton. The storm’s unexpected early convection suggests it could strengthen significantly. Hurricane modeling will begin shortly, with reconnaissance flights scheduled for the weekend. Two scenarios exist: one indicating a stronger storm impacting Central Florida and another suggesting a weaker system impacting farther south. Significant rainfall and potential flooding are concerns, especially in areas prone to flooding. Residents should stay informed and prepare as forecasts will evolve. Updates will continue through the weekend as the situation develops.

FOX 35 Storm Team Meteorologist Noah Bergren breaks down the timeline and possible impacts of a tropical system that likely will develop in the Gulf of Mexico.
