Miami starts Sunday mostly clear and around 81 degrees, but the calm morning will give way to a hot, stormy afternoon. Showers and thunderstorms are likely across the city, with slow-moving downpours capable of causing localized flooding. Temperatures will climb into the upper 80s, while it feels as hot as 106 degrees.
Storms Build Through The Afternoon
Rain chances increase through the morning, with the most active weather expected during the afternoon and evening. The forecast calls for a 60% chance of showers and thunderstorms, along with partly sunny skies and south winds of 7 to 10 mph. Stronger storms could bring brief heavy rain and gusty, erratic winds.
Heat Will Feel Closer To 106
Sunday’s high is expected to reach about 89 degrees, but high humidity will push the heat index as high as 106. The steamiest stretch may not last long where storms develop, but outdoor plans will still require frequent water breaks and shade. Lightning also makes any thunderstorm a reason to head indoors.
Wet Pattern Sticks Around Miami
Monday looks much the same, with a high near 90 and showers and thunderstorms likely after noon. Rain chances remain elevated Tuesday, when storms could begin after 8 a.m., while Wednesday brings a somewhat lower 50% chance of showers and thunderstorms. Another round of likely storms is expected Thursday and Friday, with highs generally near 89.
Localized Flooding Remains Possible
Forecasters say abundant moisture and slow storm movement could produce high rainfall rates, especially across Miami and other east coast metro areas. Multiple downpours in a short period could overwhelm low-lying or poorly drained streets. No watches or warnings are currently listed, but residents should be prepared for sudden street flooding during the strongest storms.
