A slow west-northwestward motion toward the west-northwest is expected on Sunday and Sunday night. Sara is expected to dissipate Sunday night or Monday as it crosses the southern portion of the Yucatan Peninsula. While Sara is not expected to survive its trek across the Yucatan Peninsula, a plume of enhanced moisture/remnants of Sara are likely to be drawn northward across the Gulf of Mexico ahead of an approaching cold front Tuesday/Wednesday, bringing the potential for heavy rainfall and isolated severe thunderstorms for portions of Florida.
