Looking Ahead
Moisture from an old front and light winds will result in a unsettle weather pattern for the next few days. A late season front is expected to move down the island chain late Friday, stalling over the eastern part of the chain late in the weekend. Drier weather with modest trades will return to the remaining islands by Sunday.
Today
We expect mostly cloudy skies with scattered windward and southeast showers. The Kona side and northwest will be partly sunny to start with scattered showers in the morning and mostly cloudy with numerous showers in the afternoon as clouds build due to the developing sea breeze. Locally heavy rainfall is possible. Hazy areas are expected. Southeast winds are forecast from 10 to 15 mph. High temperatures from 82° to 87°.
UV index at 12 (“extreme” exposure level)
