SUMMARY: South Florida faces a wet and cloudy Wednesday with heavy rain impacting areas like Southwest Ranches, Miami Beach, and downtown Miami, causing flooding and slow commutes along I-75.

Temperatures range from upper 70s in Broward and Dade to low 80s in the Keys, with highs reaching mid-80s. Scattered showers and storms will ease by midday but linger into the evening.
