Tropical Storm Arthur fizzles fast, but flooding risk remains for Florida

Tropical Storm Arthur, the first named storm of the 2026 season, formed and dissipated in under six hours after moving onshore in Texas. Despite Arthur’s brief lifespan, forecasters are warning that elevated flooding rain and storm chances are expected to persist across parts of Florida and the broader Southeast over the coming days.
