Miami is looking at sunny skies and a high near 83°F today with light southeast winds at 6 to 10 mph—about as close to perfect South Florida spring weather as you’ll get.
That strong mid-level ridge of high pressure sitting just offshore is keeping our region bone-dry and pleasant through Thursday. The National Weather Service forecasters expect mostly dry conditions to hold throughout the remainder of the week with above-normal temperatures, so if you’ve been waiting for a stretch of reliable sunshine, this is it.
