Miami, FL – South Florida residents can expect a slightly cooler day today, but that comes with a trade-off: showers and thunderstorms are likely as a frontal boundary passes through the region. Temperatures will remain in the upper 80s to around 90 degrees, with Miami forecasted to reach a high of 88°F. Rain chances are significant, with Miami showing a 70% likelihood of precipitation, increasing the risk of urban flooding, especially in low-lying areas.
According to the National Weather Service, the highest rain probabilities are centered around Immokalee, Everglades City, and Homestead, each with an 80% chance of showers. As the weekend approaches, rain chances begin to decrease slightly, with Saturday showing a 50% chance of rain and Sunday at 40%. However, the beginning of next week will see the likelihood of rain continuing at about 35-40% each day.
While temperatures will slightly rise by Monday, reaching 92°F, the persistent rain and occasional thunderstorms will keep the humidity high. Residents are advised to stay alert for updates on possible flooding and to drive cautiously during downpours, as localized flash flooding can occur quickly.
