Alerts
A Flash Flood Watch is in effect for all Hawaiian islands through tonight at 6 p.m. The National Weather Service says an extremely moist and unstable atmosphere could again spawn the development of slow-moving heavy downpours that could lead to flash flooding.

Looking Ahead
Winds will be rather light for the next few days. Today could be a replay of yesterday with tropical humidity and daytime sea breezes giving way to locally heavy afternoon showers and even thundershowers. There will also be the possibility for volcanic haze over the smaller islands through the middle part of the week. More stable weather and trade winds are expected to return late in the week as the disturbance moves away from the state.
Today
Partly to mostly sunny skies are expected in the morning with mostly cloudy skies for the afternoon and scattered to numerous showers. Some of the rainfall could be heavy with a chance of thunderstorms into the evening. Winds will be light and variable up to 15 mph so our high temperatures, expected from 85° to 90°, will likely feel warmer due to the humidity.
UV index at 12 (“extreme” exposure level)
Tonight
Variable winds are expected tonight up to 15 mph. Partly cloudy skies are forecasted with scattered showers in windward and mauka spots in the evening. After midnight the showers will taper off some. Leeward areas could get some isolated showers. Low temperatures from 73° to 78° are expected.
