For the weekend, a brief return of light trade winds will focus passing showers over windward slopes, with afternoon sea breezes and clouds but drier conditions over leeward areas. Winds will turn south Monday and then west through midweek and unsettled weather is expected starting Monday night and extending through the coming week.
