There are high rip current dangers today as the wind picks up and shifts to become more easterly.
Otherwise, coastal flooding is possible with high tide as we are in a king tide cycle with the full moon that happened last night. Standing water is possible with high tide and it’s not advisable to drive through the salt water.

The Tropics
Tropical Storm Sara is still bringing dangerous flooding rain to Honduras.
Belize, El Salvador, Guatemala and western Nicaragua along with the Yucatan are expected to see life-threatening flash flooding and mudslides with 12” to 30” of rainfall. Tropical Storm Warnings remain in effect for these areas.
As of 7 a.m., TS Sara is stationary and rain is the main threat as extreme flooding is ongoing.
This system will continue to meander through these area all weekend. The slow movement will allow the land friction to weaken it before it moves into the Gulf of Mexico.
Even if it does move into the Gulf, there are hostile conditions from the upper level winds and cooler waters closer to the US that the storm isn’t forecasted to strengthen again at this time.
