Sara was forecast to drop 10 to 20 inches of rain, with up to 30 inches in isolated areas in northern Honduras. In a 7 a.m. Eastern update, the hurricane center said "heavy rain, life-threatening flash flooding and mudslides" were possible through the weekend in Central America.

The west coast of Florida is still likely to feel the effects of the remnants of Tropical Storm Sara, but an organized storm is no longer expected to impact the state.

Tropical Storm Sara will cause 'potentially catastrophic' flash flooding in northern Honduras, according to the National Hurricane Center.
