Looking Ahead

The wet pattern will continue across portions of the state today as low pressure lifts northward passing Kauai and Niihau to the west. Light to moderate southeast winds will hold in place through the weekend, likely giving way to overnight land breezes and afternoon sea breezes each day. Clouds and showers will focus over interior areas through the afternoon hours. Another wet period is possible next week as a cold front approaches from the west and southerly winds strengthen.
