Miami set a new daily record temperature Friday as a heat advisory was once again issued for South Florida.

Friday's high of 97 degrees in Miami broke the previous record for July 7 of 95 set in 2020, according to the National Weather Service. It's also the hottest day in Miami since July 14, 2020.

Temperature records for Miami date back to 1895.

Although humidity was just a smidge lower than previous days on Friday, heat advisories were issued again for Miami-Dade and Broward from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m., with feels-like numbers still well over 100.

The heat advisory also continues down through the Florida Keys with feels-like numbers eclipsing 108.

Thunderstorms were firing up again Friday afternoon and may linger into the evening commute. The positive spin? Temperatures will take a bit of a hit.

Rain chances die down later this weekend and into next week, but we remain hot with highs flirting with the mid-90s.
