Looking Ahead
A weakening front will push southward through the islands through Saturday, then stall out over the eastern end of the state Sunday through early next week. A short period of unsettled weather is expected as the front pushes through the islands. The unsettled weather will likely be more persistent across windward sections of Maui and the Big Island as it stalls and before dissipating. A light to moderate trade wind pattern is then expected to return for the middle and latter part of next week.
Today & Sunday
We expect mostly sunny skies in the morning with building cloud cover in the afternoon and scattered showers. Variable winds are forecast from 5 to 15 mph. High temperatures from 81° to 86° but feeling warmer due to the high humidity. Sunday windward clouds are likely with afternoon clouds and showers for the leeward side.
UV index at 11 (“extreme” exposure level)

For the Kona side mostly cloudy with scattered showers to start with clearing skies as the night goes on and the land breeze takes hold. Low temperatures from 68° to 73°.
