Hawaii Extended Forecast Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 341 AM EDT Wed May 21 2025 Valid 00Z Thu 22 May 2025 - 00Z Thu 29 May 2025 Moderate to breezy easterly trades are likely through the rest of this week as midlatitude surface high pressure systems track well north of Hawaii. Meanwhile lowering heights aloft as an upper trough sets up will allow for some instability, while normal to above normal moisture levels are in place. This will add up to a wet trade wind pattern with showers and possibly a few thunderstorms favoring windward and mauka areas, as well as leeward areas of the Big Island, with the heaviest showers most likely Thursday-Friday. Through the weekend and into early next week, moderate to breezy trades are likely to persist. But model guidance continues to show moisture levels gradually decreasing for fewer showers. Tate
