An upper level low will cause the next seven days to have some of the highest rain chances South Florida has seen all year.
TODAYS FORECAST
Numerous thunderstorms are expected to develop across Miami-Dade County by this afternoon, before moving northwards towards Broward County by this evening.

Rain chances across the region will be in the 60-70% range. Temperatures will peak in the mid to upper 80s.
WEEKEND FORECAST
