Miami, FL – Thunderstorms will hammer Miami starting Friday afternoon, with heavy rain and repeated downpours threatening travel and outdoor plans through Monday.
According to the National Weather Service, periods of showers and thunderstorms—some producing locally heavy rainfall—will develop by midday Friday and intensify through the evening. Flash flooding is possible, especially on low-lying streets in Miami, Hialeah, and Miami Beach. Heat index values could also spike near 101°F between storms, increasing health risks for those outdoors.
Friday and Saturday bring the highest risk, with the potential for two or more rounds of storms and occasional lightning. Motorists should avoid flooded roads, and anyone with outdoor activities should have a backup plan ready. Rain chances remain elevated each night, making beach outings and late-evening events risky. Gusty winds could bring down small branches and cause isolated power outages, especially along US-1 and near coastal neighborhoods.
Conditions stay unsettled through Monday, with pop-up storms each afternoon and evening. The pattern finally breaks Tuesday, when drier, mostly sunny skies return. Stay weather-aware and monitor local updates, as new warnings may be issued with each round of storms.
