Sunset and sunrise times, golden hour and the sky score for Miami, US.
See tonight's live sunset score for Miami → Next sunrise score →
A sunset time tells you when to look. It does not tell you whether there will be anything to see. That comes down to cloud height. High cloud catches the light from underneath after the sun has dropped below the horizon, and that is what turns the sky red and gold. Low cloud sits on the horizon like a wall and blocks the whole thing. A completely clear sky gives you a plain orange dot and very little colour.
Golden Hour scores Miami from 0 to 10 every day on exactly that — the proportion of high versus low cloud at Miami's own sunset hour (and, for sunrise, its own sunrise hour), not some national average. Check tonight's score.
