Tropical Storm Sara has hit Central America with overwhelming rains and flooding. The storm's remnants could soak the Southeast.

Forecasters say the storm’s remnants will bring rain but no tropical impacts to Florida next week, followed by much cooler air.

After producing feet of rain over countries in Central America, moisture associated with the remnants of Sara are expected to stream northward, increasing the chance of scattered showers and thunderstorms mid-week along the Gulf Coast. The moisture is forecast to combine with a significant frontal boundary pushing through the country.
