Looking Ahead
Trades are forecast to steadily trend down Friday through the weekend, potentially allowing land and sea breeze conditions to setup over leeward areas Saturday through Sunday. Although shower coverage will continue to focus over windward and mauka areas, a few showers can’t be ruled out across the leeward areas that typically remain dry through the afternoon hours Saturday and Sunday due to the light winds. A slight increase in moisture moving through later in the weekend through Monday may support an increase in trade shower coverage. Drier conditions along with a return of breezy trades are expected Tuesday through the upcoming holiday.
