Miami, FL – A heat advisory has been issued for much of South Florida, including Miami, as the region braces for another sweltering day. With afternoon temperatures expected to feel like they’re in the triple digits, residents are urged to take precautions to stay cool and hydrated.
According to the National Weather Service Miami, the heat advisory is in effect from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Saturday.
