Florida – Storm clouds are lining up for Miami as a fresh round of summer thunderstorms is set to hit the city after 5 p.m. Monday, promising slick commutes and potential power outages. Residents along I-95 and US-1 should brace for sudden downpours, rapid ponding, and even street flooding as Miami enters an active weather pattern that could stretch through the entire workweek.
According to the National Weather Service, the heaviest rain and thunder will move in late Monday, with showers and storms likely persisting into Monday night. New rainfall amounts may reach half an inch, and isolated storms could dump even more in a short time. The risk continues Tuesday with more strong storms expected, while Wednesday and Thursday will each bring a 60–70% chance of additional thunderstorms. High humidity and heat will keep the “feels like” temperature near 100°F most afternoons.
City officials urge Miami residents to secure outdoor belongings, charge devices, and avoid driving through flooded roads—especially along the I-95 corridor and near Biscayne Boulevard. Lightning remains a threat for beachgoers and those with evening plans outdoors.
After a stormy week, rain chances begin to ease Friday, but afternoon storms remain possible. Stay tuned for more advisories as the pattern could bring renewed flooding and travel issues later in the week.
