| Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Miami FL 727am EDT Monday September 21 2026 .SHORT TERM... (Today through Tuesday) Issued at 104am EDT Monday September 21 2026 The wet pattern for South FL will continue early this work week. An upper low over the northern part of the state will slowly lift to the northeast today and eventually get absorbed into the broader upper level flow on Tuesday. Meanwhile, moist southerly flow will be in place across South FL with HREF and forecast soundings showing PWAT (Precipitable Water) values of 2.1-2.3 inches. Much like the past several days, convection coverage will likely be broader than what the Hi-res models are showing. Expected numerous thunderstorms during the afternoon and early evening hours both today and Tuesday, with the highest Probability of Precipitation over the interior and east coast metro. While mean Quantitative Precipitation Forecast values are generally 0.5-1 inch, highly efficient rainfall rates and slow moving storms will likely result in pockets of 2-4 inches across the area, and that is backed up by the HREF 6 hour max totals late in the day. Therefore, several instances of urban and poor drainage flooding should be expected and prepared for, especially across vulnerable portions of the east coast metro. WPC is carrying a marginal risk of excessive rainfall over the metro for both today and Tuesday. High temperatures today and Tuesday will be generally in the upper 80s to around 90, with the high temps occurring early in the afternoon before rain-cooled temps arrive. Low temps tonight will be in the low to middle 70s. Long Term (Tuesday night through Sunday) Issued at 104am EDT Monday September 21 2026 Mid to late week an upper level low moves into the eastern US and then lingers off the New England coast through the weekend. A frontal boundary will slide south across the state on Thursday and settle either over far southern FL or across the Straits Friday and remain there through the upcoming weekend. Some drier air will likely filter at least down to the lake region late in the week, but will struggle to make it all the way through South FL. This is reflected in the Probability of Precipitation for late in the week into the weekend with the highest Probability of Precipitation over the far southern peninsula and lower chance Probability of Precipitation across the northern half of the forecast area. Overall it will remain a wet and unsettled period across South FL, with at least isolated instances of urban flooding remaining possible each day. Temperatures through the extended period remain near normal with highs each day generally in the upper 80s to lower 90s. Low temperatures will be in the low to middle 70s. Marine Issued at 104am EDT Monday September 21 2026 Gentle southerly flow is expected over the area waters today. Seas generally 2 ft or less. Scattered thunderstorms expected each day this week which may result in locally hazardous winds and seas. NOAA Miami FL Office: Watches - Warnings - Advisories FL...None. AM...None. GM...None. |
