Looking Ahead
Winds are expected to slowly weaken as we get into the weekend with relatively stable trade wind weather expected. Showers will favor our usually windward areas with lots of sunshine for leeward areas. An increase in windward and mauka showers is possible for early next week. There is a potential tropical system to the southeast of the state that we are watching closely. We will bring you the latest should anything develop.
Today
We expect northeast winds around 10 to 20 mph. High temperatures are forecast from 84° to 89°. Partly to mostly cloudy skies with showers likely for windward spots in the morning and isolated afternoon showers forecast for the Kona side.
