July 25: Hot, humid weather continues with a better chance for afternoon storms
The summer sizzle continues, but we’re throwing some extra thunderstorms into the mix, especially later on Saturday afternoon. Stay cool, and stay aware of lightning and heavy downpours nearby, particularly between 2 p.m. and 6 p.m.
It’ll be a typical summertime forecast for South Florida, but the rain and storm chances are a little lower than usual through today and the upcoming work week.

It’s a hot, hazy and humid forecast for South Florida this weekend. Scattered storms are likely, but most will develop around midday, arriving a little earlier than usual.

A Heat Advisory is in effect for most of Miami-Dade and Broward counties from 11 AM through 7 PM as the “feels like” temperatures will approach 105-110 degrees during that time.
July 12: Stay hydrated on extremely warm Sunday
A heat advisory is in effect for Miami-Dade and Broward counties from 11 a.m. through 7 p.m.
