As Miami recovers from a weekend of heavy rainfall, residents can anticipate more scattered showers and possible storms, along with persistent breezy conditions lasting into the coming days. The National Weather Service forecasts a 40 percent chance of precipitation today, with mostly cloudy skies and highs reaching up to 91 degrees, while the heat index may soar as high as 104 degrees.
Tonight's weather remains somewhat unsettled, with a 30 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms, especially between 2 a.m. and 4 a.m., as reported by National Weather Service. Residents should brace for breezy south winds, around 10 mph. Moving into the week, tomorrow through Thursday, NBC Miami notes that high temperatures will persist with a slated range in the low to mid-90s.
Mariners, in particular, should exercise caution as a small craft advisory is currently in effect, coupled with a high risk of rip currents posing dangers along the coast. The midpoint of the week is slated to dial back the rain chances slightly, and the breeze, but the heat continues unabated with Wednesday's temperatures projected to hit near 92 degrees under mostly sunny conditions, where also a 50 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms exists.
Looking ahead to the weekend, no significant relief from the heat or the sporadic rainy conditions is expected; showers and thunderstorms remain in the forecast with probabilities ranging from 20 to 40 percent. Miami residents and visitors alike should prepare for a mix of partly sunny and mostly sunny days, interrupted by the occasional downpour and thunderstorm, maintaining this typical summer pattern in South Florida according to reports from both the National Weather Service and NBC Miami.
