Residents in Miami should prepare for a classic steamy Florida day, with highs expected to soar into the low-mid 90s. The National Weather Service has warned of a 40 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms creeping in post-lunch hour, potentially accompanied by a scorching heat index values hitting a staggering 102 degrees. The National Weather Service indicates a consistent pattern of evening storms, only abating slightly heading into the week.
The outlook isn't much sunnier over at NBC Miami, as they indicate severe afternoon storms may roll through Miami-Dade and Broward; featuring large hail, damaging winds, and that these conditions could brew near or after the lunch hour with the mercury flirting with record highs, NBC Miami reported. A change is expected Tuesday as a beach breeze is set to work its way into the area, promoting a gradual cool down and decreased rain chances through the rest of the week.
Monday nighters could catch a break from the onslaught of the day's mugginess, with a projected 40 percent chance of showers and storms before 10 PM, the National Weather Service predicts, bringing a tad of respite with lows around 76 degrees. Looking ahead, Tuesday brings a slight respite from the punishing heat, with expected highs hovering near a more manageable 87 degrees and a merciful 50 percent chance of rain to possibly cool things off.
Citizens would do well to mark their calendars for midweek relief as a beach breeze should lower the thermostat back to the upper-80s, offering a chance for storms to subside until they're nothing but isolated showers by mid-late week, at least that's what NBC Miami is putting out there. For those eyeing the weekend, weather authorities nod to the familiar Florida cycle of sunny starts followed by a shot at showers, indicating a continuous dance with raindrops that has residents poised for pop-up umbrellas and the occasional sigh at the sky.
