Miami Saturday Afternoon Weather: 83 Degrees, Rain Chance Down to 25 Percent for Halloween Night
Miami sits at 83 degrees on Saturday afternoon with the Halloween-night rain chance down to 25 percent in the station's live feed - the driest reading of the day - before drizzle returns Sunday and showers make Monday the wettest day of the stretch.
Halloween night is looking better than it did this morning. The station's live weather feed read 83 degrees at mid-afternoon Saturday, feeling like 87.9, with Saturday's precipitation chance down to 25 percent - below the 31 percent the feed showed at midday and the 40 percent range it carried overnight. For trick-or-treaters on Lincoln Road, in Coral Gables and at Bayfront Park's evening events, that points to a warm, mostly dry night with only a passing-shower risk, and a low of 76.2 tonight.
Tonight also runs long. Daylight saving time ends at 2 a.m. Sunday, November 1, when clocks fall back an hour - the extra hour this desk detailed in its earlier service file - and Sunday's final early voting day and the Fort Lauderdale Boat Show's closing day both run on standard time.
Sunday is still the turn in the pattern. The feed shows drizzle (code 51) with a high of 79.5 degrees, a low of 74.1 and a 53 percent precipitation chance. Monday is the wettest day of the stretch, with showers (code 81), a high near 82 and a 72 percent rain chance, before Tuesday eases to a 43 percent chance with a high of 83.6 and Wednesday dries further to 19 percent.
The practical read for the rest of the weekend: take the dry Halloween night the feed is offering, and plan Sunday's voting, boat-show and football trips - the Dolphins and Inter Miami both play Sunday - with rain gear in hand.
