Live aviation weather for Miami International Airport in Miami, FL, including METAR, TAF, ATIS, flight category, wind, visibility, ceiling, altimeter and runway crosswinds.
Miami International Airport (KMIA) is one of the primary air-carrier airports serving Miami, FL at a field elevation of 9 ft. KMIA reports its own METAR and publishes a TAF, and broadcasts digital ATIS (D-ATIS), decoded live on this page as flight category, wind, visibility, ceiling and altimeter. It has 4 physical runways (08L/26R, 08R/26L, 09/27, 12/30), the longest 13,016 ft. The official FAA airport diagram is at the bottom of the page.
Wind from the north-northeast (030°) at 6 kt, visibility 10+ statute miles, a few clouds at 2,000 ft, temperature 27°C (80°F), altimeter 29.94 inHg. Conditions are Visual Flight Rules (VFR).

Current pilot readout for KMIA
KMIA is currently VFR with winds from 030° at 6 knots, visibility 10+ statute miles, and no ceiling reported. The tower TFDM states arrivals on runway 12, 08L, 09 and 08R and departures on runway 12, 08L, 09 and 08R; crosswind on the active runways is approximately 5–6 kt; the wind favors east-facing runway ends (08L, 08R, 09). Density altitude is approximately 1,400 ft (field elevation 9 ft). Review the latest TAF below for forecast changes before departure.
KMIA by the numbers
What the long-run records say about flying here, computed for this airport alone.
The FAA issued 32 ground stops and 13 ground delay programs for MIA between October 2025 and October 2026, affecting 31 days. Thunderstorms were the most common reason (22 of 45). A typical ground stop lasted about 1 h 26 min.
KMIA reported VFR in 90% of daylight observations over 20 years, about 284 flyable days a year. July is the most reliable month and January the least, with IFR or worse 3% of the time. When conditions drop it is usually a mix of low ceilings (under 1,000 ft 1% of hours) and low visibility (under 3 miles under 1%).
Over 20 years of hourly winds, the east-facing ends (08L, 08R, 09) had the best headwind 38% of the time, runway 12 35%, and winds were calm 18% of hours. Winds most often blow from the east. Crosswind on the best available runway topped 15 kt in under 1% of hours.
Thunderstorms were reported on about 83 days a year. 62% of storm hours fall in June, July and August, peaking in July when storms were in the air 5% of the time.
MIA departures left within 15 minutes of schedule 74% of the time across 111,095 flights, June 2025 to May 2026. Before 9 AM departures did best (90%) and 6 to 9 PM did worst (66%).
Over the last 30 days of recorded D-ATIS broadcasts, KMIA ran east flow 68% of the time and mixed configuration 17%. Runway 09 was named for arrivals most often (84% of recorded hours), and the configuration changed 117 times.

“Current use” is what the tower TFDM configurationstates; wind components are arithmetic on the current METAR against TRUE headings; status reflects NOTAMs received through SWIM, the tower's TFDM record and the D-ATIS — a runway reads “Open” only with a complete NOTAM picture.
