Miami

What’s the weather like in Miami in January?

Miami is in Florida in the southeast United States. It has a tropical climate as it’s close to the Tropic of Cancer. It won’t feel like winter if you're going to the Sunshine State in January, although you'll have cooler temperatures than over the summer. It’s one of the driest months of the year though, and you'll get plenty of sun at this time. This is the perfect time to visit Miami if you'd rather avoid the hotter summer months when it rains more. Winds that come across the North Atlantic Ocean will also help to keep you cool.
