Tropical Storm Eta is forecast to move inland over the northern portion of the Florida peninsula today. Tropical-storm-force winds, life-threatening storm surge and heavy rainfall are expected while tornadoes and flooding are possible. Heavy rain may lead to flash flooding through Thursday from the southern Appalachians into the Mid-Atlantic states where a front is meeting Eta's moisture. Meanwhile, the Northwest is bracing for more wintry weather. Active Advisories: Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Wyoming, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida
