Looking Ahead
Breezy trade winds will continue through Wednesday, then gradually weaken Thursday and Friday before becoming light and variable over the weekend. Clouds and showers will favor our usual windward and mauka spots with some showers pushing leeward from time to time. The light winds over the weekend are forecast to switch up the weather pattern with local land and sea breezes taking hold. Strengthening trade winds are expected at the beginning of next week.

We expect northeast winds around 15 to 20 mph. High temperatures are forecast from 80° to 85°. Partly cloudy skies with scattered showers for windward spots. For the Kona side, sunshine in the morning with building clouds in the afternoon and isolated showers during that time.
UV index at 11 (“extreme” exposure level)
