(CNN/WSVN) - Parts of South Florida are experiencing massive flooding after rains from Tropical Storm Isaac swept through the area.

The brunt of the storm spared the Florida peninsula, including Tampa.

The National Hurricane Center predicts Isaac will make landfall near the mouth of the Mississippi River as a Category 1 storm, with sustained winds of at least 74 miles per hour.

President Barack Obama is urging folks not to "tempt fate" and to take all warnings seriously.

Isaac isn't expected to pack the same punch Hurricane Katrina did back in 2005, but as you can see in the video above, the storm can make things messy.
