Trade winds will be gradually strengthening on Thursday in
response to surface highs strengthening and consolidating well
north of Hawaii. Winds are likely to reach breezy levels on Friday
and stay breezy to locally strong through the weekend into early
next week. Meanwhile model guidance remains in fairly good
agreement with showing a mid-upper trough/low centered west of
Hawaii late week and then coming overhead by early next week. This
could provide some instability for increased showers, which would
favor windward and mauka areas given the increasing trades.
Slightly above average moisture anomalies may peak around
Monday-Tuesday. Rainfall totals do not appear to be significantly
high though. This wet trade wind pattern looks to continue into
much of next week, though trades may decrease slightly later next
week.
