Miami, Grab Your Hoodies: Arctic Blast Brings the Coldest Temps in Years ❄️

January 9, 2025

South Florida, it’s officially sweater weather! An Arctic air mass has invaded the Sunshine State, bringing the coldest temps Miami has seen since 2023. Forget the beach vibes for a sec—this week is all about bundling up.

How Cold Is It?

Wednesday Morning: Temps dropped to the 40s and 50s across Miami-Dade and Broward. North winds made it feel even chillier.
Wednesday Night: The real cold snap hits. Lows are expected to plunge into the 40s by Thursday morning, marking the coldest air Miami’s felt in two years.
Highs This Week: Upper 60s to around 70°F—definitely not your typical Miami sunshine!

For context, the last time Miami got this cold was Jan. 16, 2023, when the temp dipped to a frosty 44°F at Miami International Airport.

What’s Next?

The chill will stick around through the workweek, so keep that cozy fit ready for chilly mornings and cooler-than-usual afternoons.
By Friday afternoon, Miami will start to thaw out as mid-70s make their comeback.
But wait—don’t pack away those layers just yet! Another cold front could roll in as early as Saturday.

How Miami Is Coping

Expect locals to:
☕ Beeline to their favorite cafecito spot for some extra warmth.
🛍️ Stock up on jackets they’ll only wear twice this year.
🐶 Dress their dogs in cute sweaters because, obviously.

So, Miami, enjoy this rare cold snap while it lasts. Whether you’re layering up for a morning jog or finally getting to rock that puffer jacket you impulse-bought last year, make the most of this Arctic moment. 🌬️
