WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — In the tropics, Tropical Storm Sara is struggling along the coast of Honduras on Friday.
It's forecast to slowly move along the coast, then into Belize over the weekend. At this time, the National Hurricane Center has the low-level center dissipating over the Yucatan Peninsula.
Once it reemerges over the open waters, it will be nothing more than a super-inflated rain storm. It will eventually get picked up by the cold front dropping down from the northwest.

Conditions will not be favorable in the Gulf of Mexico for future tropical redevelopment.
However, the moisture will get pulled into a strong cold front that will move through Florida Wednesday and early Thursday, enhancing our rainfall then.
The WPTV First Alert Weather forecast calls for a 40% chance of showers on Wednesday and a 30% chance on Thursday, especially during the morning hours, then clearing.
