What's the Weather Like in Miami in March
When you are heading to Miami, it can be desirable to strike a balance between the hotter summer months and the cooler winter months. Going somewhere in the middle works well, as you will find if you choose to visit in March.
Sunshine
The hours of sunshine you can expect each day moves up to 7 hours from the previous couple of months at 6 per day, which means temperatures are going to start to rise.
Temperature
The average highest temperature in this month is 26°C, with an average low of 18°C certainly mild by anyone's standards. Your average daily temperature rounds out at about 22°C, which should be a comfortable climate for walking around or even visiting the beaches.
Sea Temperature
If you do decide to go for a swim, the water will be pleasant. The average sea temperature this month will be 24°C certainly not the hottest you can expect in Miami, but decent enough that heading to the beach is not unheard of even for locals.
Rainfall
This part of the USA is known for a climate that is relatively steady all year round, without extreme cold. However, the rainfall can be quite intense at times. March is a good, dry month, with just 7 days of rainfall and an average precipitation of 64mm.
If you want to be sure that you can spend the day outdoors with no risk of getting wet, be sure to check the forecast before you leave your hotel. Rain can sometimes come on quite suddenly, with a torrential downpour coming out of nowhere. This should not interrupt your day too badly, however, as there are plenty of friendly shops and cafés throughout Miami where you can pass some time to avoid the worst of the rain. Don't expect so much this month, though during the peak of the summer the rain really comes down all the more.
