Tropical Cyclone,Honduras: Tropical Storm Sara made landfall on late 14 November near the Honduras-Nicaragua border, bringing sustained winds of 45 mph and heavy rainfall, with up to 30 inches expected in parts of northern Honduras, posing severe flooding and mudslide risks.
Sara has already affected more than 20,500 people in Honduras. Authorities have placed multiple departments under alert, with public offices and humanitarian networks standing by to support. In Belize, officials and UN teams are actively preparing for Sara's possible landfall within 72 hours. Other countries in Central America are also evaluating potential impacts from the storm.
Sara previously left heavy rains to Panama and Costa Rica, both of which had recently taken on high rainfall from Rafael earlier in November. The non-stop rains prompted evacuations in Costa Rica and an emergency declaration in Panama.
Sara is the 18th named storm in the 2024 Atlantic hurricane season, which was forecast to produce between 17 and 25 named storms.
