Miami, FL – A Coastal Flood Advisory and High Rip Current Risk remain in effect for Miami-Dade County through Wednesday evening, prompting safety warnings along Florida’s southeastern coast. The National Weather Service warns residents and visitors to expect flooded streets, rough surf, and dangerous swimming conditions as storms move through the area.
According to the National Weather Service in Miami, moderate coastal flooding could impact A1A and Ocean Drive, with the potential for water to cover parts of parking lots and low-lying roads near the shoreline. Residents are urged to avoid beach access points and take alternate routes if water covers the road.
Forecasters expect scattered thunderstorms Tuesday and Wednesday, bringing brief downpours and gusty winds up to 20 mph. Highs will reach the mid-80s, with humidity keeping the “feels-like” temperature near 90°F. Rain chances remain around 60% through midweek before easing by Friday.
Looking ahead, Thursday brings a mix of sunshine and isolated storms, with highs near 86°F. By Friday and Saturday, expect drier, breezier conditions as the fall pattern strengthens. Sunday appears mostly sunny — perfect for pumpkin patch visits or early Halloween decorating — with highs near 84°F and lower humidity.
Beachgoers should swim near lifeguards, avoid rip currents, and never enter floodwater. Those in flood-prone zones should secure outdoor items and monitor official weather alerts.
