Looking Ahead
Trade winds are forecast to continue through the upcoming weekend. The moderate to strong trades will ease slightly later in the week. Clouds and showers are expected to favor windward and mauka spots during the nights and mornings, although the trades will be carrying some of these showers into the leeward areas from time to time on the smaller islands. The remnants of a front is forecast to bring some wet trade wind weather to the islands over the weekend.
