Hawaii Extended Forecast Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 309 AM EDT Thu Jun 15 2023 Valid 00Z Fri Jun 16 2023 - 00Z Fri Jun 23 2023 The core of the subtropical high is expected to be nearly anchored in place between Hawaii and California through the upcoming weekend, and then move slightly towards the west by the early to middle part of next week. The Islands will be on the southwestern periphery of this high through the forecast period. Similar to yesterday, the GEFS mean is slightly to the west with the high compared to the ECENS mean by Monday-Wednesday. This will also be co-located with an upper level high in the same general region. A weak upper level trough will lift slowly northwestward across the eastern and central Islands over the next several days, but it should not have a noticeable effect on the local weather for most locations. In terms of sensible weather, low level trades should generally be out of the east with some occasional ESE component at times, with moderate to breezy flow velocities expected. No major surges of tropical moisture are expected over the next week with the deepest moisture confined to the ITCZ. Hamrick
