Looking Ahead
Winds are light as a cold front approaches the state. A disturbance is also pushing toward the state. Showers chances are forecast to gradually increase in coverage over Kauai with a slight chance for thunderstorms through Monday night. The rest of the islands are forecast to see showers during the afternoon and evening hours on Monday. Tuesday trade winds are forecast to slowly increase and passing showers will then start to favor windward and mauka spots again. Wednesday we should be back to breezy levels. Friday, a decrease in winds is forecast.
Today
We expect variable winds up to 15 mph with local land and sea breezes developing. Partly cloudy skies with a chance showers (mainly in the afternoon) and volcanic haze. Temperatures up to 84° to 89° but feeling warmer due to the higher heat index.
UV index at 9 (“very high” exposure level)
Tonight
Light and variable winds are expected up to 15 mph. Showers are possible to start, then clearing skies as the night goes on. Low temperatures from 72° to 77°.
