Hawaii Extended Forecast Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 328 AM EDT Mon Oct 30 2023 Valid 00Z Tue Oct 31 2023 - 00Z Tue Nov 7 2023 The surface high situated north of the Islands is expected to gradually weaken some over the next couple of days as a frontal boundary near 30 degrees north impinges on the high, with the front expected to stall well north of the state. A surface low is forecast to develop along this boundary mid-week, and this should also pass north of the state around 30 degrees north. The trailing front from this low may come closer to the northwestern Islands by late Thursday and into Friday, with a col remaining in the surface high going into early next weekend. In terms of sensible weather, the trades should generally be light out of the east with some ENE or ESE component at times through early in the week, before a more southeasterly flow develops in response to the frontal boundary and col. The trades should continue to be lighter than usual going through the end of the week for most areas, which would result in more sea breeze type showers to develop. If the front late week manages to pass the northwestern Islands, a stronger surge of northeasterly winds would result. However, no major areas of organized heavy rainfall are expected over the next 7 days. Hamrick
