Hawaii Extended Forecast Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 342 AM EDT Thu Jun 20 2024 Valid 00Z Fri Jun 21 2024 - 00Z Fri Jun 28 2024 Latest guidance continues to show a typical trade pattern through the next seven days, supported by high pressure meandering to the north of the state. Expect brisk to strong winds late this week through the weekend, followed by somewhat lower wind speeds next Tuesday-Thursday. Aside from an area of moisture brushing the northwestern islands on Friday, precipitable water values should remain below climatology--helping to keep primarily windward/mountain focused showers on the lighter side most of the time. Some degree of upper ridging will pass through the region during the weekend, followed by an upper low that may approach from the east by next Wednesday-Thursday. Clustering is still better than average for this latter feature but with a slower trend versus yesterday's guidance. Rausch
