Looking Ahead
A cool and breezy to locally windy north to northeasterly flow will continue today due to the pressure gradient between a low to the east and high pressure ridge to the northwest of the state. Clouds and showers associated with the low will drift into all islands producing enhanced rainfall over windward and mountain areas with some of the stronger showers passing over leeward sections. Wet trades will continue on Thursday and Friday and temperatures will warm up as winds gradually shift towards a more typical east-northeast direction. A decrease in the trade winds with additional enhanced showers are forecast for the upcoming weekend.
