Our city experienced heavy rainfall and strong winds overnight combined with higher-than-normal tides, and various areas have been affected by flooding. The National Weather Service has issued a High Wind Warning for Coastal Miami-Dade County until 1 p.m. this afternoon.
If you come across any debris or flooding that obstructs access to public or private property, please call 305.673.7625, report it through the Miami Beach e-Gov app or email flooding@miamibeachfl.gov.
Our Public Works team is out in the community responding to reports of flooding as quickly as possible and removing debris from streets and sidewalks. Residents should still exercise caution when leaving their home. In addition to our existing stormwater infrastructure, which includes 48 permanent pump stations, Public Works has temporary pump stations deployed in low-lying areas. Learn more about why extreme rain events cause flooding and how rainfall drains through our pump systems.
