Looking Ahead
A trough of low pressure will move from west to east across the area today through Saturday, bringing the potential for heavy rainfall and thunderstorms to the island chain. The trough will stall out over the eastern islands while a cold front sags southward into Kauai on Sunday, then stalls out and slowly dissipates near Oahu Sunday night through early next week. The remnant moisture from the trough and front may combine to bring a wet and showery pattern to windward areas Monday through the middle of next week, with showers reaching leeward areas at times as well.
