08Editor's notes

What the numbers don't tell you

July is hot and humid, with afternoons around 32 °C and near-daily storms, but also cheap, with Swim Week bringing fashion crowds to South Beach and the Fourth of July fireworks at Bayfront Park and on Miami Beach. Sea temperatures are bath-warm at 30 °C. Plan beach time for the morning and the Design District, museums and malls for the afternoon. Rain falls on about fifteen days.

Hurricane risk remains low in July compared with August to October, but refundable bookings are still wise. The Overtown Music and Arts Festival and the International Mango Festival at Fairchild Garden fill the calendar. Hotel rates are at summer lows outside the holiday weekend. Daylight lasts until after eight. The hottest and most humid weeks follow in August, with the Miami Spice restaurant promotion as the reason to come.
