Why has Miami suddenly gone from wet to dry? And will it really feel like 100 again?

Where did the rain go?

It’s summer in Miami, so it’ll be back. But on Wednesday, South Florida can expect a mostly dry day.

“We’re certainly seeing an improvement. What a difference a few hours can make,” meteorologist Lissette Gonzalez told viewers on CBS4, the Miami Herald’s news partner.

Forecasters with the National Weather Service are expecting “a hazy and hot day” with an afternoon high in the low-90s. That’s a change from Tuesday, when storms moved into the region, setting off marine warnings and flooding concerns.

“The big story is the heat,” Gonzalez said Wednesday morning. Those 90s? It’ll feel more like the 100s.

“The heat is on. The humidity, too,” she said.

The “near-zero” rain chance in South Florida on Wednesday and Thursday comes with Saharan dust moving across the area, said NBC 6 meteorologist Steve MacLaughlin.

The drier, calmer weather should benefit people hunting for dinner as lobster miniseason begins in Florida. Overnight storms that made life a bit miserable for early-bird lobster hunters have mostly cleared out.

“The weather conditions have calmed down,” CBS4’s Gonzalez said.

So what can lobster lovers expect on the water on Wednesday?

Some spotty rain, light wind and a moderate chop on the bay, and a little rougher in the Keys, Gonzalez said.

And on Thursday, the finale of the two-day miniseason, it’ll be even drier and hotter.

The rain chance will pick up toward the weekend — but then a new batch of that drying Saharan dust will arrive next week.
