Heat advisory extended for Miami-Dade, Broward, Monroe counties
MIAMI – A heat advisory Miami-Dade, Broward, and Monroe, which was supposed to end at 8 p.m. Thursday, has been extended to 8 p.m. Friday.
Afternoon temperatures will be in the low 90s. However, combined with the humidity, the heat indices could reach up to 110 degrees on Thursday and Friday.
A heat advisory is issued by the National Weather Service when a heat index of 105 degrees or higher is expected for at least two hours in Miami-Dade. That is below Broward and the Florida Key’s heat index of 107 degrees for two hours.
Overnight temperatures will offer little relief. Lows will struggle to make it out of the 80s near the coast and the “feels like” temp will remain above 90 degrees for much of the night, according to the National Weather Service.
People are urged to drink plenty of fluids, but avoid those that contain caffeine, high sugar content, and alcohol. Stay in an air-conditioned room, limit the time you work or spend time outdoors during the hottest part of the day, and check up on relatives and neighbors.
Wear clothing that is lightweight, light-colored, and loose-fitting. If you’re outside, wear a hat and sunscreen to protect your face and scalp from harmful UV rays.
If you must be outdoors, slow down, take breaks in a shaded or cool area, and drink cool fluids every hour.
If you feel lightheaded, confused, weak, or faint, seek medical attention immediately by calling 911.
For dog owners wanting to take their four-legged friends for a walk, it’s important to remember the seven-second rule. Place your hand on the concrete for seven seconds. If it’s too hot for you, it’s too hot for your pet too.
MIAMI-DADE COUNTY, Fla. — A 12-year-old girl was shot in the arm after gunfire erupted in a northwest Miami-Dade neighborhood early Tuesday morning, according to the Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office.
Deputies said they responded just before 1 a.m. to the area of Northwest 64th Street and Northwest 21st Avenue in the county’s Gladeview area, where they found three vehicles struck by gunfire, including a silver Hyundai.
“The car was parked outside of the residence. It was occupied by three juveniles, so it was the girl and her two siblings that were in the vehicle. The mom was outside of the vehicle at the time, so this could have been a very different outcome,” MDSO Detective Samantha Choon said.
Authorities said Miami-Dade Fire Rescue medics transported the girl to a nearby hospital in stable condition.
A family member of the victim told Local 10’s Jackie Pascale that the girl is now home and doing OK.
They said neither her siblings nor their mother was injured in the shooting.
According to investigators, no arrests have been made, and detectives have not released any suspect information at this time.
Neighbor Marie Grimes said she was shaken after hearing multiple gunshots.
“I heard the booms — boom, boom, boom, boom — and I said, ‘Oh my God, what’s happening?’” she said. “Maybe five or six, ’cause look at that right there. I’m just glad the little girl is OK.”
Investigators asked neighbors to check their surveillance or Ring camera footage from around 1 a.m. and contact authorities with any information.
Anyone with information on the shooting is urged to contact Miami-Dade Crime Stoppers at 305-471-8477. Anonymous tips are accepted.
