MIAMI - South Florida's warming trend will persist into New Year's Eve, with temperatures expected to reach a record-tying high of 84 degrees on Dec. 31 afternoon, before dipping into the low 70s for the New Year's celebration.

After some patchy fog New Year's Eve morning, we'll enjoy mainly dry conditions with a partly sunny sky. Firework displays and festivities in the evening will be dry and mild, with temperatures in the 70s.

A cold front will move through Tuesday night and will bring a drop in humidity and temperatures for the start of 2025.
