Hawaii Extended Forecast Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 246 AM EDT Fri Sep 22 2023 Valid 00Z Sat Sep 23 2023 - 00Z Sat Sep 30 2023 The guidance agrees that a warm core high strengthens to the north of Hawaii this week should keep a locally breezy trade wind pattern in place. Trades may be disturbed during the weekend with some heavier showers possible as an upper level trough/cyclone moves nearby and leads to a slight uptick in the precipitable water values over the islands, an event which looks to recur mid to late next week prior to the approach of a tropical disturbance. Showers through the next week will tend to focus over the favorable windward/mountain areas but could extend over some leeward locations depending on pockets of higher moisture/instability moving through the flow near the upper level disturbances.
