- Aug. 16: Saharan dust to bring hot temperatures, limited rainfall to South Florida
Saharan dust is overwhelming South Florida, which is suppressing rainfall and promoting high temperatures. Temperatures are expected to soar, with Miami potentially reaching near-record highs of 95 degrees on Monday and tying the record at 96 degrees on Tuesday. Limited rainfall could exacerbate existing drought conditions this week.
