Why did it rain so much in Brevard, Lake counties? High pressure and Hurricane Melissa
Several inches of rain fell in parts of Brevard County and Lake County in Florida, causing major flooding along streets, roadways, and in some neighborhoods.
Jamaica and other countries impacted by Hurricane Melissa will be getting help from organizations right here in South Florida.
Hurricane Melissa is forecast to strengthen — possibly as high as Category 5 — as it meanders around the Caribbean in the next several days.
Though the risk to Florida is low, parts of the Caribbean are in peril. Tropical Storm Melissa is expected to power up to a major hurricane. Though its chances of affecting Florida are low, it can't be ruled out.
