A big weather system which has already killed 20 people in the Atlantic is heading towards the US south coast.

Tropical Storm Erika is expected to make a direct hit on the Dominican Republic in the next few hours.

It'll then cross Cuba, and head towards Florida.

State governor Rick Scott has already declared a state of emergency there.

"I'm trying everything I can to get our state ready."
