Hawaii Extended Forecast Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 143 AM EDT Wed Jun 29 2022 Valid 00Z Thu Jun 30 2022 - 00Z Thu Jul 07 2022 Models are fairly well clustered through about early next week in showing upper ridging building over the islands into late week as surface high pressure strengthens to the northeast and north of Hawaii supporting moderate/breezy trade winds. These trades should persist into next week to carry waves of enhanced moisture through the state, but rainfall amounts should remain generally modest with windward and mauka based showers. An upper trough passing through the region from the east this weekend offers some additional lift, but deepest moisture will remain well south of the state. After this, upper riding should again build over and north of the region by the middle of next week. Santorelli
