South Florida continues to experience heavy rainfall and localized flooding today, September 29, 2026, due to persistent deep tropical moisture. Residents across Miami-Dade, Broward, and the Florida Keys should prepare for ongoing wet conditions.

The rainfall has already accumulated between 2 to 4 inches in northeast Miami-Dade and southern Broward County. This includes areas like Miami, Fort Lauderdale, and Hollywood. Light-to-moderate rainfall will continue throughout the morning, posing a marginal risk for excessive rainfall.

Slow-moving downpours could lead to localized street flooding, impacting daily commutes and neighborhood activities. More storms are possible into the afternoon. Clouds will keep temperatures in the middle-to-upper 80s, providing some relief from the typical South Florida heat but contributing to the humid conditions.

Local authorities advise residents to exercise caution on the roads and avoid driving through flooded areas. The forecast indicates these conditions will persist through the day, affecting various cities within Miami-Dade, Broward, and the Florida Keys. Stay informed on local updates as the weather system progresses.
