The holiday spirit is set to remain largely undampened in Miami as the city ushers in Christmas with relatively mild weather, despite the looming presence of clouds and the occasional chance of showers. According to the National Weather Service, today's forecast indicates a 20 percent chance of showers with a high around 76 degrees and breezes from the northeast. As folks in South Florida wrap up their last-minute holiday errands, they can expect gusts of up to 20 mph to accompany partly sunny skies.
As reported by Local 10, the region's residents are set "to enjoy more sunshine than the past few days" with just a few morning showers possibly interrupting otherwise dry conditions. It may prove to be just the perfect weather for those quick runs to the mall or the grocery store, as the "onshore breeze" is to gradually die down, giving way to an afternoon of sun and cloud mix. Temperatures are likely to peak in the upper 70s. "The weather will cooperate for any last minute holiday preparations or travel plans," as Local 10 foresees. Read the full forecast here.
Looking forward into the festive weekend, Christmas Eve is predicted to remain largely free of rainfall, a pleasant mix of sun and clouds creating a backdrop for Santa's arrival. The National Weather Service has similarly forecast a high pushing the upper 70s mark but with Northeast winds persisting at 11 to 13 mph, gusting to nearly 20 mph.
And for those dreaming of a white Christmas, keep dreaming. Miami continues to muse upon what could be, rather than what will be, as December 25 is slated to see clouds reigning over with a 30 percent chance of showers, particularly after 1 p.m. Answering to the call of Southeast winds, temperatures are expected to reach up to 78 degrees, as per the National Weather Service. The evening will bear witness to a consistent display of scattered showers, with the winds slowing taking a slight turn, and gusts set to slightly ease off into the night. Christmas magic may not exactly be in the weather pattern, but temperatures embracing the high 70s might just grant the warmth needed for a cozy holiday embrace.
