Hawaii Extended Forecast Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 218 AM EST Thu Nov 14 2024 Valid 00Z Fri Nov 15 2024 - 00Z Fri Nov 22 2024 Latest model guidance continue to show an upper level ridge and mean surface high pressure north to northeast of the islands maintaining brisk to strong easterly trade winds through at least this weekend. This may lead to high surf and gusty winds with increasing moisture leading to some heavier showers along eastern slopes of the southernmost islands later in the week/next weekend. Trades should weaken by early to mid next week as the upper high moves away from the region and an amplified trough sends a cold front into at least the northern islands later next week. Winds will turn more northerly behind the front with some gusty winds and rainfall to accompany the frontal passage as well. Santorelli
