Early Sunday morning, Miami was mostly clear and around 75 degrees, with a mostly sunny day ahead and a high near 86. The brief stretch of quieter weather comes with one important catch for beachgoers: coastal flooding and dangerous rip currents remain concerns along Miami-Dade’s Atlantic shoreline.
Sunny Sunday, Quiet Monday
The National Weather Service in Miami expects mostly sunny skies Sunday. Monday should stay mostly sunny and warmer, reaching about 86 degrees, with rain chances remaining in the single digits. Sunday has a slight chance of afternoon showers and thunderstorms.
A slight chance of showers gives way to partly cloudy skies Sunday night, with a low near 75. The calmer outlook is a notable shift from Hoodline’s earlier forecast, which focused on a wetter setup heading into the weekend.
Beach Hazards Outlast The Sunshine
According to the National Weather Service, a Coastal Flood Statement remains in effect for coastal Miami-Dade through Monday afternoon. Isolated minor flooding could put water on low-lying roads and property during high tide cycles.
Dangerous rip currents are also expected through Monday afternoon, even as skies stay bright. Swimmers should stay near lifeguards, avoid rough surf and never drive through flooded roadways; Atlantic seas could reach 6 to 8 feet Sunday morning before easing somewhat Monday.
Storm Chances Climb Tuesday
The forecast turns more unsettled Tuesday, when showers and thunderstorms have a 60% chance of developing and could become more likely later in the day. Wednesday brings a 60% to 80% chance of showers and thunderstorms.
Typical convective activity is expected from Thursday, with highs near 87 Saturday and 86 Sunday.
