South Florida Faces Severe Flooding as Rainfall Predicted to Exceed 10 Inches

Fort Lauderdale on Track to Break 1947 Rainfall Record Amidst Ongoing Storm

South Florida is experiencing significant rainfall that could exceed 10 inches in some areas, leading to a high risk of flash flooding.
Fort Lauderdale is on track to break its 1947 rainfall record, with the city having already received 101 inches of rain this year.
The National Weather Service has determined there’s a greater than 90 percent chance Miami and Fort Lauderdale will see at least 4 inches of rain through Thursday.
Parts of Palm Beach County and Broward County saw 3 to 6 inches of rain on Tuesday and stand to get an additional 8 to 10 inches through Thursday.
The storm system, considered nontropical at the moment, could attain some tropical characteristics over warm waters east of the Peninsula, but it has just about a 10 percent chance to become a named storm.
