Looking Ahead
A stalled front over northern Big Island will dissipate through Tuesday. This will allow the strong and gusty trades to spread to and around the Big Island. Breezy trades will persist through the rest of the week. The strongest winds are expected Wednesday. Showers should favor the windward and mountain areas of all islands for the rest of the week with a few of these showers drifting downwind into the leeward areas of the smaller islands. Leeward Big Island will have a few showers each afternoon for the rest of the week.
