Looking Ahead
A surface ridge north of the islands will maintain locally breezy trade winds into mid-week. A rather tranquil trade wind weather pattern is also expected to persist across most of the state this week. However, enhanced moisture just upstream of the eastern end of the state is spreading toward the Big Island. As a result, showers are expected to increase along the windward sides of the Big Island and Maui starting tonight. The trade winds will weaken slightly on Thursday and Friday, followed by stronger trades on Saturday. The flow will begin to turn southeasterly late Sunday and Monday, with the potential for much wetter conditions developing across much of the island chain early next week.
