Miami Weather: South Florida Feeling The Heat As Miami Matches Record High Temperature

MIAMI (CBSMiami) – While the official start of summer is still several weeks away, South Florida is already feeling the heat.

Monday's temperatures matched a record high in Miami, reaching 96 degrees.

Much of South Florida soared into the mid-90s thanks to a gentle southwest wind keeping the afternoon sea breeze at bay.

A return to southeast winds and the refreshing sea breeze is expected by Wednesday when highs fall to the low 90s.

By late in the week, moisture from a disturbance located in the southwest Gulf of Mexico will begin reaching South Florida bringing an increase in rain chances but not much relief from the 90 degree heat.
