For Friday into the weekend, a surface high to the north-northeast
of Hawaii should be in place, promoting breezy to windy easterly
trades. Drier than average moisture levels (in terms of
precipitable water) are also present and should persist into early
next week. Some windward/mauka showers are possible but likely
nothing too heavy, considering the dry conditions.
Winds may lessen slightly around Monday-Tuesday as the surface
high shifts farther east, before another high comes in to the
north of the state and strengthens winds again around midweek and
beyond. Meanwhile some moisture return from the south is likely
early to mid-next week, which could possibly increase coverage and
amounts of showers that would still mainly focus in windward/mauka
areas.
