Edgewater neighborhood (33137) –  As the U.S. grapples with a wave of extreme rain events, meteorologists warn that a brewing system in the Atlantic—dubbed Invest 93L—could dump even more water on already saturated regions. In Florida, where neighborhoods are still recovering from record-breaking floods last month, the looming threat has ignited renewed concern across emergency management agencies and local communities.

A string of historic rain events has inundated parts of the U.S., from Vermont’s overflowing rivers to Florida’s swamped coastlines. Now, all eyes are on Invest 93L, a tropical disturbance off the southeastern U.S. coastline, which meteorologists say could bring yet another deluge to the Southeast—especially Florida.

Key Facts

  • BREAKING: Invest 93L could form into tropical depression near South Florida

  • IMPACT: Southeast U.S. at risk; over 12M people in flood-prone zones

  • OFFICIAL SOURCE: “Even without formation, flooding is a major concern.” – John Morales, NBC 6

  • ACTION: Prepare emergency kits, charge electronics, and follow @NHC_Atlantic for live updates

NBC 6 meteorologist and climate specialist John Morales sounded the alarm Wednesday evening, tweeting that the system could “very well evolve into a tropical depression” and emphasized its potential for “copious rainfall regardless of formation.” Morales’ warning comes on the heels of NOAA reports confirming June 2025 as one of the wettest Junes on record across the Gulf Coast.

Flash flood warnings have already been issued in parts of Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties, where soil saturation and overburdened drainage systems could exacerbate conditions quickly. In Fort Lauderdale, where some areas saw over 20 inches of rainfall in a single day just weeks ago, businesses and residents are preparing for another round of closures and evacuations.

    Edgewater neighborhood (33137) – near Margaret Pace Park, Biscayne Blvd & NE 17th St

  2. Community Connection:

    “We just finished rebuilding from the last flood—this might break us again.”
    Carlos Jimenez, owner of La Isla Café

As Invest 93L spins toward land, emergency operations centers are going into high alert mode, and residents are being urged to stock up on supplies and monitor local alerts closely.

Federal weather officials say the next 48 hours are critical, and depending on sea temperatures and steering currents, Invest 93L could turn into a named storm before the weekend.

Exclusive Angle

  • WHY THIS MATTERS NOW:
    Invest 93L arrives just weeks after record flooding in Broward County that displaced over 1,000 residents. Climate experts point to a rising frequency of “1-in-100 year” rain events in Florida and across the Gulf, linking it to a warming Atlantic basin.

Update Log

  • 11:00 AM: NHC gives Invest 93L a 60% chance of tropical development

  • 12:15 PM: Flood watch issued for all of South Florida through Saturday

  • 2:30 PM: FEMA activates rapid response units in Miami and Tampa
