Florida – Umbrellas tilt against steady rain this morning as puddles spread along curbs and crosswalks. Tires hiss on wet pavement, and low clouds blur the skyline. Conditions feel unsettled now, with more changes close behind.
According to the National Weather Service, showers remain likely through today with occasional thunderstorms possible, especially during the morning and midday hours. Rain coverage reaches around 60 percent, with brief downpours reducing visibility. Winds stay light early, then turn breezier later, adding chop to coastal waters.
Across South Florida, moisture lingers into Wednesday. Another round of scattered showers develops, mainly late morning through afternoon. While rainfall totals stay modest, repeated wet periods can slow traffic and snarl commutes. Latest models show conditions improving late Wednesday night as drier air begins to filter in.
In Miami, highs reach the mid to upper 70s today and Wednesday. Humidity stays elevated, keeping streets damp even after rain tapers. Drivers should plan extra time on I-95, the Dolphin Expressway, and surface roads prone to ponding. Reduced visibility may flare up quickly under heavier showers.
By Thursday, the pattern shifts. Sunshine breaks through, winds turn breezy from the northwest, and humidity drops. Highs remain warm, near the mid-70s, but the air feels noticeably fresher. Thursday night turns mostly clear with lows near 50, a cool touch for January 2026.
Friday and Saturday stay dry and bright. Daytime highs climb into the upper 60s and low 70s with comfortable evenings. No additional weather alerts are expected once midweek rain exits.
