A change in Tropical Depression 19’s path significantly changes Hurricane Sara’s timeline, placing doubts on whether it will survive early landfall.

A shift in Tropical Depression 19's track has significantly impacted meteorologists' predictions about its potential to form into Hurricane Sara.

Tropical Storm Sara — or at least its remnants — could enter the Gulf of Mexico next week. Forecasters expect significant weakening as Sara crosses over the Yucatan Peninsula, likely reducing the chances it could pose a major threat to Florida later in the week.
