Looking Ahead
Unsettled weather will prevail over most of the state the next couple of days as an area of low pressure moves closer. The approaching low will maintain a muggy conditions, and bring periods of rain, heavy at times, and a slight chance of thunderstorms. A drying trend is expected over Kauai and Oahu Thursday and Friday as the low weakens, and a trough lingers near the Big Island and Maui. The drying trend may be short-lived however, as another low may bring increasing showers next weekend.
