Coastal flood warning in effect for Miami-Dade and Broward until 8 PM Wednesday

The National Weather Service has issued a Coastal Flood Warning for coastal areas of Miami-Dade and Broward counties, effective until 8 PM Wednesday.

This warning indicates significant coastal flooding is expected, with impacts including road closures and inundation of low-lying properties such as homes, businesses, and some critical infrastructure.

In addition to flooding, a high risk of dangerous rip currents remains through Wednesday evening, which can sweep swimmers away from shore into deeper water.

The NWS advises residents and visitors to stay aware of changing conditions, avoid flooded roads, and exercise caution near the shoreline to stay safe during this period.
