Miami continues to see sunny mornings followed by afternoon showers and thunderstorms, a common South Florida pattern, but a slight break is expected heading into the weekend. Their forecast indicates storms will impact half or less of South Florida by Friday afternoon. An optimistic sign for those weary of the wetter antics earlier this month, according to NBC Miami.
The National Weather Service is charting a similar course, setting today's chance of rain at 30 percent with a potential for thunderstorms mainly after 3 pm, as per their latest update. The heat isn't backing down either, as Miami is slated to hit a high near 90 with heat index values scorching way up to 102. Winds are forecast to hold steady from the southeast at around 6 mph.
The evening tide brings a continuous play of 30 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms, echoing into the hearty embrace of the night with lightly variable winds. As for the weekend, NBC Miami's forecast promises a mostly sunny Saturday with a touch of scattered afternoon storms. "PM storms. Rain: 40%. High: 92°," summarizes the outlook—keeping Miami's residents prepped for a wet encounter or two amidst the blaze of a Floridian sun.
Come Sunday, National Weather Service pegs the chance of precipitation at 60 percent. Showers and possibly a thunderstorm are likely after 2 p.m. for those heading outdoors. The mercury doesn't plan to take a dive, however, as it is poised to percolate right near 90 once again. With the north wind picking at 9 to 13 mph, gusting as high as 20 mph.
Looking ahead into early next week, the anticipation for more sun-soaked mornings followed by afternoon rain remains a steady beat in the heart of South Florida's forecast.
