Morning: A Crisp Start for the Magic City

Miamians woke up to a noticeably brisk start this Wednesday, February 4, 2026. Morning temperatures have settled into the mid-to-upper 50s, a continuation of the cooler trend that has gripped South Florida over the last few days. While the air remains chilly, the skies are expected to stay relatively clear during the early hours, offering a bright but cold commute for those heading out early. Residents are encouraged to keep a light jacket handy through the mid-morning hours as the mercury rises slowly.

Afternoon: Sunshine and Milder Conditions

As the day progresses, Miami will see a pleasant recovery in temperatures. The afternoon forecast predicts a shift toward milder conditions, with highs expected to reach the low-to-mid 70s, specifically peaking around 73°F. Skies will remain mostly sunny, though some intermittent cloud cover may develop. While the day is largely expected to be dry, weather models indicate a 15% chance of spotty showers moving through the area. These brief coastal sprays are unlikely to disrupt outdoor plans but serve as a reminder of the region's typical humidity, which is currently hovering around 69%.

Evening & Night: Clouds Return Ahead of a New Front

By Wednesday evening, conditions will turn mostly cloudy as a transition in the atmosphere begins. Temperatures will dip back into the 60s, eventually reaching a low of approximately 59°F overnight. The chance of rain remains low at 10%, though the increased cloud cover signals the approach of a secondary cold front expected to arrive later in the week. Winds remain relatively light for now, but a shift in direction is anticipated by the early morning hours of Thursday.

Safety Alerts: Coastal Hazards in Effect

While the weather over land remains manageable, conditions along the coast are more hazardous. A Small Craft Advisory is currently in effect for boaters along the Atlantic waters due to building seas. Additionally, the National Weather Service has highlighted a high risk of rip currents along the Atlantic beaches. Swimmers and beachgoers are urged to exercise extreme caution and stay near manned lifeguard towers, as these dangerous currents can persist even under seemingly calm, sunny skies.
