Hawaii Extended Forecast Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 330 AM EDT Mon Aug 12 2024 Valid 00Z Tue Aug 13 2024 - 00Z Tue Aug 20 2024 A relatively wet and breezy trade wind pattern will be in place for the coming week across Hawaii. Surface high pressure meandering around 40N will maintain the typical pressure gradient for moderate to breezy easterly trades through the week, possibly strengthening a bit by late week into the weekend. Through the period, some showers are possible favoring typical windward/mauka areas but occasionally spilling into leeward areas. Coverage and amounts of rain may vary from day to day. By around Wednesday-Friday, troughing in the mid-upper levels could raise the typical inversion to support showers, and then models are agreeable in enhanced moisture coming in around late Friday-Saturday, with another possible moisture surge early next week. Widespread heavy rain is not expected in this showery pattern. Tate
