Looking Ahead
The breezy trade winds will be giving way to lighter trades over the weekend, as the ridge north of the islands weakens. The remnants of an old front will bring an uptick in trade showers tonight through Saturday morning. An upper level disturbance will come close to the islands on Monday and Tuesday, enhancing some of the showers in the process. A new high will bring in another round of breezy trade winds by the middle of next week.
