A large upper low with accompanying surface low will be situated
north of Hawaii through Saturday, generally in the vicinity of 35
degrees north.  This low will then lift northward and well away
from the state by Sunday, although a trailing trough and surface
frontal boundary will likely remain in the vicinity of the Islands
going into early next week.

An unsettled weather pattern will be present most days with
scattered to numerous showers and some thunderstorms, especially
going into the weekend with several inches of rainfall possible
across the northeast facing terrain.  Some instances of flooding
will be possible.  Low level winds will likely increase across the
northwestern Islands on Thursday behind the frontal boundary in
northerly to northeast flow.  The winds will likely be more
variable across the Big Island with the front likely not
completely clearing that region.
