Miami is poised to experience a mix of sun and clouds this week, with a front approaching that's expected to bring slightly cooler temperatures and a chance of rain. The National Weather Service predicts "mostly sunny, with a high near 82" for today, and an evening partly cloudy with a low around 72. The gentle east wind might provide a respite from the heat, as it moves from 5 to 10 mph.
As South Florida has been experiencing a drier spell this month, the approach of a front later in the week could offer a necessary reprieve with a few showers. NBC 6's weather forecast notes, "We actually need it as most of South Florida has seen virtually no rain this month." Temperatures are expected to peak slightly above average, reaching mid-80s, before the front slightly to cool things down.
Tuesday's forecast remains sunny according to the National Weather Service, holding steadfast with a high near 82 degrees, and a persistent east wind at 7 to 10 mph. The following night should stay mostly clear, with minimal change to the wind's pace. NBC 6 echoes a similar sentiment for Tuesday, projecting a partly cloudy day with a seamless, rain chance at 10%, and a slightly higher prediction at 84 degrees for the afternoon high.
Looking ahead, both forecasts suggest an increase in cloud cover and a greater chance of precipitation around the Thanksgiving holiday. "A 20 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms after 1pm," reports the National Weather Service for Thanksgiving Day, with mostly cloudy skies holding a high near 82 degrees. In accord, NBC 6 foresees "a few showers" with their chances pegged at 30% and similar high temperatures.
For those planning Black Friday shopping, the cooler air might just be the cue to grab a jacket. "Partly sunny, with a high near 77" states the National Weather Service, expecting Northeast wind about 10 to 15 mph, with gusts that could rise as high as 25 mph. NBC 6 suggests a lingering shower might still be around with their projected rain chances somewhat dialed back to 20%.
