Looking Ahead
A wet and breezy start to the weekend is in store as a band of clouds associated with the tail-end of a front drifts south over the islands and an upper disturbance moves through. Although much of the shower coverage will focus over windward areas, some will manage to spill over into leeward sections periodically. A return of a more typical trade wind pattern is expected Sunday into the start of the upcoming week as drier air moves over the islands. Trades may weaken through middle to latter half of next week as another upper disturbance moves into the area.
