Tropical Storm Sara LIVE Updates: Tropical Storm Sara Wreaks Honduras | Honduras News | N18G
Belize issued tropical storm warnings for the Central American country’s coast on Friday as Tropical Storm Sara stalled in the western Caribbean, dousing Honduras’ northern coast with heavy rain.
Sustained rain fell overnight in the Honduran city of San Pedro Sula, with no immediate sign of serious flooding.
Sara was forecast to drop 10 to 20 inches (25 to 50 centimeters) of rain, with up to 30 inches in isolated areas of northern Honduras. The heavy rain could lead to life-threatening flooding and landslides, according to the Miami-based National Hurricane Center.
The weather system made landfall late Thursday about 105 miles (165 kilometers) west-northwest of Cabo Gracias a Dios, on the Honduras-Nicaragua border, the center reported. That is near Brus Laguna, a village of about 13,000 inhabitants. There are few other areas of population nearby.
