Hawaii Extended Forecast Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 220 AM EST Tue Feb 07 2023 Valid 00Z Wed Feb 08 2023 - 00Z Wed Feb 15 2023 Guidance generally agrees that upper ridging over the state offers a more stable pattern with typical trade flow and modest passing showers favoring windward terrain over the next few days. Amplified mid-latitude upper trough and surface system passage well to the north of the state could bring another weakening/stalling trailing front toward the islands by mid-late week. Island trades may increase to moderate to brisk levels and linger through next weekend as post-frontal high pressure bridges to the north then northeast of the state. In this pattern, the bulk of upper troughing and deepest moisture remains just to the south of the state, but renewed trades should be able to tap enough for periodic showers over favored windward terrain. The Big Island seemingly has the best potential for some heavier downpours into early next week given deepest moisture potential. Schichtel
