Miami is forecasted to experience potentially severe weather this afternoon, with a 50 percent chance of thunderstorms developing after midday and continuing into the early evening. Forecast models indicate the possibility of gusty winds, small hail, and frequent lightning. Heavy rainfall may lead to isolated flooding in some areas of South Florida, according to reports by the National Weather Service.
High temperatures today are expected to reach the low 90s, as per NBC Miami's forecast. However, conditions may shift over the weekend and Memorial Day, with a lower chance of storms and slightly cooler temperatures ranging from 88 to 90 degrees. Current projections indicate that Sunday and Monday could be the driest days, as storms are forecasted to move inland during the afternoons, resulting in more stable conditions along the coast.
The National Weather Service reports that for the rest of the week, Miami residents can expect a continued pattern of afternoon showers and thunderstorms, with daily chances varying. While common for the region, these weather events serve as a regular indication of the variability in South Florida's climate.
Nighttime conditions are expected to be calmer, with the likelihood of showers and thunderstorms decreasing significantly after sunset. Forecasts indicate a 20 to 30 percent chance of rain and thunder overnight, with partly cloudy skies and low temperatures around 79 degrees. These milder conditions may be more favorable for outdoor activities later in the day, though some weather variability may still occur.
