Florida faces days of heavy rain while potential tropical system tries to form off Southeast coast

A potential tropical disturbance could form off the southeastern U.S. coast this weekend, but regardless of development, that area of disturbed weather will likely drop several inches of rain from Florida to the Carolinas and into parts of the mid-Atlantic, accompanied by gusty winds that could produce large waves, dangerous rip currents and coastal flooding.
