the Virginia Key station with the elevation of every road segment in Miami. When the predicted water level rises above a road's lowest point, it's marked — amber for possible, orange for likely, red for severe. The NOAA Virginia Key gauge shows how far the water is actually running above or below the tide tables; that difference is carried into the forecast and fades over the following days. Recent rain raises the next 24 hours. After each high tide, streets stay marked a little longer, because water drains off the road more slowly than the tide falls. **Estimates only.** Never drive through flood water — six inches can float a car. Follow local authorities. Tide source: [NOAA station 8723214 (Virginia Key)](https://tidesandcurrents.noaa.gov/noaatidepredictions.html?id=8723214). Updated 1:13 AM EDT.

The worst flood forecast in the next 30 days is Thu, Oct 22, 3:35–9:25 AM EDT (flooding likely). At its peak, 7 streets are forecast to flood: Northwest 7th Ave, Venetian Way, 5th St, Alton Rd, Northwest 6th St, S Bayshore Dr and Brickell Ave. The [live map](https://floodroute.com/fl/miami) shows every street, hour by hour. ### When is the next flood in Miami? Thu, Oct 22, 3:35–9:25 AM EDT: flooding likely, peaking around 6:30 AM. FloodRoute forecasts 46 more flood windows in the next 30 days. See the [street-by-street forecast for that day](https://floodroute.com/fl/miami/2026-10-22). ### How high does the tide have to be to flood roads in Miami? Roads start to flood when the tide at NOAA's Virginia Key station passes about 2.5 ft (MLLW). Higher tides flood more streets, for longer. FloodRoute marks flooding as possible when the water is less than 0.5 ft above a road's low point, likely up to 1.5 ft, and severe at 1.5 ft or more. ### When is the next king tide in Miami? Thu, Oct 22 at 6:36 AM EDT: a 2.5 ft high tide predicted at NOAA's Virginia Key station. FloodRoute calls a high tide a king tide when it is more than 0.7 ft above the station's mean higher high water (MHHW). ### How can I get flood alerts for Miami? The free FloodRoute iPhone app gives you a heads-up before flood windows in your home town; FloodRoute Pro adds street-level alerts for your saved places and your commute. Without the app, subscribe to the [Miami flood calendar](https://floodroute.com/cal/fl/miami.ics) and flood days appear on your calendar automatically. ### How accurate is the Miami flood forecast? It's an estimate built from NOAA tide predictions for the Virginia Key station, corrected with live readings from the NOAA Virginia Key gauge, and the measured elevation of every road segment in Miami. Wind, storm surge and blocked drains can change what actually floods. Never drive through flood water. ## Nearby in Miami - [Miami Beach](https://floodroute.com/fl/miami-beach.md) --- Web version: https://floodroute.com/fl/miami · Site index for AI agents: https://floodroute.com/llms.txt · Every page is available as Markdown: add `.md` to its URL.
