Hawaii Extended Forecast Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 213 AM EST Thu Jan 12 2023 Valid 00Z Fri Jan 13 2023 - 00Z Fri Jan 20 2023 There continues to be very good agreement in the guidance for a stable and mostly dry weather pattern over Hawaii dominated by a strong upper ridge parked over the islands through at least the middle of next week. Northerly winds on Thursday should shift back to a more east, southeast direction and pick up in speed by this weekend which could bring back some mainly light windward showers. A cold front may pass to the north of the islands, allowing the ridge to break down somewhat mid to later next week, but the heaviest precipitation with this front should stay to the north as well.
