A regular summer event is missing from Sunday's metro Miami weather forecast
Daily Miami and Fort Lauderdale summer weather forecasts usually can be summed up as 'hot, rain, chewy humid, repeat.' Sunday's forecast drops one of those. The National Weather Service predicts a high of 91 degrees with a heat index of 102 degrees Sunday and Monday. That's higher than usual because the usual daily 15 to 20 minutes of warm-but-cooling rain — just long enough to play the first six songs on Marvin Gaye's 'What's Going On' — isn't expected to return until at least Monday in Miami, Tuesday in Fort Lauderdale. And, Miami's Monday maybe for rain is estimated at a slight 20% in the daytime, 10% at night. There's a 40 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms Tuesday in Miami and Fort Lauderdale. So, if you're going to be outside, take some fluids with you. Check on senior citizens, especially those who might have malfunctioning fans or air conditioners in their homes. Parents, grandparents, guardians and pet parents, especially if you're altering your routine, make a habit of looking in the back seat before you lock your car with the windows raised. Many child or pet deaths from hot cars happen when the child or pet is being taken along on a common errand where they're usually not present. A disturbance in the Atlantic Sunday morning, the National Hurricane Center says environmental conditions for a tropical wave about 1,000 miles east-southeast of the Lesser Antilles 'appear only marginally conducive for development during the next day or so while the system moves west-northwestward around 10 mph.' Formation chance through two days: 10%. Formation chance through two days: 10%.

The Top 10 Songs of All Time According to AI
This article is published by a partner of TIME. Music has always been a universal language, capturing emotions, memories, and stories in ways that few other mediums can. Each of us has a personal list of favorite songs that have left lasting impacts, whether through lyrical beauty, instrumental brilliance, or nostalgic appeal. Over the years, countless attempts have been made to define the "greatest songs of all time." For example, Rolling Stone magazine's frequently updated list of iconic songs has long been a touchstone for music lovers. Similarly, the BBC and VH1 have each curated lists that combine critical acclaim, historical impact, and popular appeal. We used research assistance from ChatGPT to comb through thousands of sources to determine the most universally beloved and culturally significant songs of all time. Here are the top 10 songs that AI ranks above the rest. Note that AI can produce "hallucinations" (inaccuracies or mistakes), and we question whether number seven on this list deserves to be included in the top 10. We would instead have preferred to see a song from the Rolling Stones or The Who in the number seven spot. 1. "Bohemian Rhapsody" – Queen Queen's 'Bohemian Rhapsody' is often lauded as a rock masterpiece, known for its operatic segments, powerful guitar solos, and hauntingly poetic lyrics. Freddie Mercury's unique composition blends rock, opera, and ballad into one cohesive piece, making it both innovative and emotionally resonant. 2. "Imagine" – John Lennon John Lennon's 'Imagine' envisions a world united in peace, free from divisive boundaries. It became an anthem for hope and activism. Its gentle melody and straightforward lyrics evoke a sense of calm, yet the song's message remains as relevant as ever. 3. "Like a Rolling Stone" – Bob Dylan Bob Dylan's 'Like a Rolling Stone' revolutionized popular music with its raw sound and lyrical depth. The six-minute track defied industry norms, paving the way for artistic freedom in rock music. Dylan's biting lyrics capture disillusionment with society in a way that remains powerful today. Led Zeppelin's 'Stairway to Heaven' combines acoustic balladry with hard rock, building intensity through a carefully crafted crescendo. Its mystical lyrics and epic guitar solos make it a favorite among rock enthusiasts and guitarists alike. 6. "What's Going On" – Marvin Gaye Marvin Gaye's 'What's Going On' is a soulful plea for peace and understanding, reflecting the social and political upheavals of the 1970s. The song's smooth, soulful sound paired with its powerful message resonates with listeners across generations. 7. "Smells Like Teen Spirit" – Nirvana Nirvana's 'Smells Like Teen Spirit' defined the grunge movement of the early 1990s, resonating with a generation frustrated by conformity. Kurt Cobain's enigmatic lyrics and the song's raw energy made it a staple of alternative rock. 8. "Hey Jude" – The Beatles 'Hey Jude' by The Beatles is a comforting ballad with a sing-along outro that has captivated audiences worldwide. Paul McCartney's lyrics offer empathy and encouragement, creating an enduring song that transcends generations. 9. "Hotel California" – Eagles The Eagles' 'Hotel California' tells a haunting story of excess and entrapment in the guise of a laid-back rock ballad. Its iconic guitar solo and mysterious lyrics have made it an enduring classic in the rock genre. 10. "Respect" – Aretha Franklin Aretha Franklin's 'Respect' became an anthem for both civil rights and women's empowerment. Her powerful vocals and the song's demand for recognition resonate across decades, making it a timeless hit. Conclusion on Top Songs These ten songs, spanning decades and genres, represent some of the most influential and enduring tracks in music history.

What was Detroit like in the 1960s? Take a look back in time.
It was the best of times — and the boiling point. In the 1960s, Detroit roared with the sounds of new muscle cars and the distinctive sounds of Motown. Woodward Avenue was the glittering spine of the city, lined with movie theaters, shops and crowds. At Motown's Hitsville U.S.A., Berry Gordy was changing the sound of America, while downtown department stores like Hudson's remained bustling centers of fashion and community life. But beneath the rhythm of those radio hits and the hum of the assembly line, tensions between police and the city's Black residents were brewing in the neighborhoods, ultimately leading to a deadly five-day uprising. Take a look back at Detroit in the 1960s with our curated photo gallery, featuring images from the Free Press archives and beyond, capturing the city's highs, lows and everyday life during a decade that changed everything.

'If I kissed some man, I'd cut my lips off': Terrence Howard on whyhe turned down Marvin Gaye biopic
Terrence Howard rejected the chance to play Marvin Gaye because he refused to kiss another man. The 'Empire' actor admitted the "biggest mistake" of his career was turning down Smokey Robinson's personal request for him to play him in a separate project because he was already in talks with director Lee Daniels to play the 'Let's Get It On' hitmaker. However, Terrence grew concerned when he heard rumours about Marvin - who married twice and had three children before being shot dead by his father in 1984 at the age of 44 - and his sexuality. Speaking to Bill Maher on his 'Club Random' podcast, he recalled: 'I was over at Quincy Jones's house, and I'm asking Quincy, 'I'm hearing rumours that Marvin was gay' and I'm like, 'Was he gay?' And Quincy's like, 'Yes.' 'They would've wanted to do that [in the film], and I wouldn't have been able to do that.' Bill asked: 'You mean you couldn't kiss a guy on screen in a movie?' His guest replied: 'No. Because I don't fake it. 'That would f*** me. I would cut my lips off. If I kissed some man, I would cut my lips off.' The 56-year-old actor insisted his decision wasn't a sign he is "homophobic" but he felt he couldn't completely commit to the role. He said: "It does not make me homophobic to not want to kiss a man... 'I can't play that character 100%. I can't surrender myself to a place that I don't understand.' Marvin never spoke publicly about his sexuality, but in 2018, late producer Quincy - who died last year aged 91 - claimed the 'What's Going On' singer was one of many high-profile men to have slept with late acting legend Marlon Brando. He told Vulture: "Marlon used to go cha-cha dancing with us. He could dance his ass off. He was the most charming motherf***er you ever met. He'd f*** anything. Anything! He'd f*** a mailbox. James Baldwin. Richard Pryor. Marvin Gaye." Asked again whether he knew for certain that they'd all slept with Brandon, Jones responded: "Come on, man. He did not give a f***!"
