Florida is bracing for an escalating flood threat throughout the weekend as a combination of tropical moisture and a stalled front leads to persistent rainfall, particularly along the state's east coast. The National Hurricane Center (NHC) is closely monitoring a disturbance located off the coast of South Florida, adding another layer of concern for residents. Rainfall totals are projected to reach between 3 to 5 inches across the region, with some isolated areas potentially experiencing up to 8 inches of rain.
