Looking Ahead
Light to moderate trades will hold today, then become light and variable tonight through Saturday as a cold front approaches from the northwest. Increasing moisture combined with a sufficient amount of instability and light winds ahead of this front will translate to warm and muggy conditions with increasing rain chances Friday through Saturday. A few thunderstorms will remain possible along and ahead of the front. A gradual drying trend is expected from west to east as the front advances down the island chain and light to moderate northerly winds fill in. A return of a more typical trade wind pattern is anticipated Tuesday through midweek as high pressure builds north of the state.
