A persistent mid-upper ridge is in place across Hawaii and is
likely to remain into the first half of next week. Meanwhile at
the surface, high pressure north of the state will start to
strengthen early into mid-next week, enhancing trade winds from
moderate levels this weekend to breezy levels by around Tuesday.
With the ridge aloft and generally below normal moisture levels,
expect a relatively dry pattern this weekend into early next week.
However, some light showers favoring typical windward areas are
possible daily.

The ridge axis is currently forecast to shift north midweek and
beyond, as a minor weakness in the heights may track across Hawaii
on the southern side of the ridge. This may allow for a temporary
increase in windward showers around Wednesday-Thursday, but still
with pretty minor rain amounts. Breezy trade winds should continue
into the latter half of the week as well.
