Miami's ever-changing weather is at it again, with the city waking up to light rain and fog this morning. As per the National Weather Service, humidity levels hit a sticky 96%, with visibility down to five miles thanks to the fog and mist. Temperatures remain warm though, hovering around 73°F.
Despite the muggy start, hope is on the horizon for those who prefer their sunshine without the liquid accompaniment. "A 30 percent chance of showers, mainly before 9 am. Mostly sunny, with a high near 81," the National Weather Service forecasts. The wind is expected to take a northwesterly turn, gusting as high as 18 mph, and the humidity, is going to take a nosedive as the day goes on.
Tonight, the weather is slated to give South Floridians a breather. According to the forecast, it's going to be "mostly clear, with a low around 58." Those clear skies will usher tomorrow morning chill with the mercury expected to dip into the upper 50s.
The rest of the week looks to be offering up a classic serving of Sunshine State weather. "Sunny, with a high near 76," both tomorrow and Thursday promise to be picture-perfect. As the National Weather Service indicates that even as the week rolls on, rain chances stay low and weather stays mild — that is until the weekend gears up.
