Hawaii Extended Forecast Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 244 AM EST Thu Feb 06 2025 Valid 00Z Fri Feb 07 2025 - 00Z Fri Feb 14 2025 A weak ridge of high pressure at the surface will reduce easterly wind speeds Thursday, allowing some land/sea breezes to set up. Available moisture in the vicinity of the islands and a trough aloft could provide support for light to moderate showers, with the greatest coverage over Maui and the Big Island lasting through Thursday night. Easterly trades should redevelop by Friday into the weekend and persist into early next week. This will favor possible showers across windward and mauka areas, but likely limited due to upper ridging and lack of moisture. Moisture may increase slightly at times Monday-next Thursday but this does not look too dramatic. Winds may veer in at least the western islands by around midweek in response to a front to the northwest; this front may approach closer by late next week. Tate
