A new storm, which became Tropical Storm Milton on Saturday, is forecast to strengthen to a hurricane before taking aim on Florida this week.
Milton is expected to strengthen to a hurricane on Monday morning and then make landfall along the Florida Peninsula on Wednesday.
The storm might make landfall as a Category 2 hurricane or stronger.
A separate system is already saturating Florida with 2 to 5 inches of rain this weekend, so by the time Milton reaches Florida, the flood threat will be increased substantially.
Five-day rain rain totals could reach 10 inches or more in Florida by the time Milton leaves the state.
