Looking Ahead
The Hawaiian Islands remains in a dry light wind weather pattern for the foreseeable future under the influence of a subtropical ridge. Several low pressure systems will continue to pass north of the islands through the week with the southern tail of each associated cold front breaking down the ridge north of the state as they pass. Light winds will allow smaller scale land and sea breezes to dominate from Tuesday onward. A strong trade wind inversion aloft will keep cloud heights low with mostly dry weather conditions.
