A historic November deluge brought at least 22-30 inches of rain to Florida's east coast, with some locations exceeding NOAA's 1-in-1,000-year rainfall thresholds. As a powerful El Niño develops, the extraordinary flooding raises questions about what lies ahead for Florida's normally drier months. -
Some areas have already received 3 to 6 inches of rain, others over a foot, and another 1 to 3 inches could fall before conditions gradually improve Tuesday. -
A developing storm system is bringing rounds of heavy rainfall to South Florida. Dangerous surf, rip currents and coastal flooding could be problematic along Atlantic beaches. -
Historic king tides sent saltwater surging over seawalls and into south Florida neighborhoods, flooding major roads and bridges. Some of the water levels rivaled some recorded during past hurricanes. The extraordinary flooding exposed growing vulnerabilities along South Florida's coastline. -
Halloween weekend will bring a little bit of everything to the Sunshine State, from warm temperatures and occasional sunshine to gusty coastal winds and increasing chances for rain and thunderstorms. -
Nor'easters typically occur during the fall and winter months, when cold continental air clashes with warm, moist air from the Gulf and the Atlantic Ocean. -
Dangerous surf, rip currents, coastal flooding, beach erosion and strong northeast winds are expected to continue along Florida’s east coast through the week. -
As Josephine moves away, South Florida will see a surge of tropical moisture from the south (unrelated to Josephine), increasing the chance of heavy rain that could cause flash floods. The rain could worsen coastal flooding due to King Tides. -
A flow off the Atlantic over the weekend and next week will lead to erosion, rough surf and the potential for flooding along the coast and nearby tributaries. -
By watching the clouds, they can help predict changes in the weather. Cirrus clouds often indicate a change in the weather is coming while cumulonimbus clouds indicate storms.
