Miami, Florida – A stormy Saturday afternoon is ahead for Miami, as scattered showers and thunderstorms are expected to roll into South Florida after 2 p.m.
These storms could bring lightning, slick roads, and brief downpours, which may disrupt outdoor plans and create hazards for drivers and beachgoers. The National Weather Service (NWS) has issued a warning for possible delays and flooding, especially on low-lying roads like U.S. 1 and I-95.
Saturday Afternoon: Storms Roll In After 2 PM
Miami will experience a 50% chance of showers and thunderstorms Saturday afternoon, with most of the activity occurring between 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. Rainfall could accumulate to a quarter-inch in isolated areas, and winds may gust up to 14 mph.
The high for the day will be near 89°F, but with the humidity, the heat index will feel closer to 95°F. Drivers should prepare for wet conditions and reduced visibility, which could impact travel times.
Storms will likely continue into Saturday night, though they should taper off before 11 p.m. However, Sunday’s weather brings a renewed storm risk, with widespread showers and possible thunderstorms expected after 11 a.m.
Sunday and Monday: More Showers and Thunderstorms
Sunday will be another stormy day, with a high of 89°F and showers expected to pick up again after 11 a.m. Residents across Miami-Dade and Broward counties should remain weather-aware and consider limiting outdoor activities during the peak storm hours. Power outages, minor flooding, and reduced visibility from downpours are all possible.
On Monday, the weather will briefly calm, but a 30–50% chance of afternoon storms will remain. The typical late-June pattern of afternoon thunderstorms continues, bringing the possibility of localized hazards.
