The recent pattern continues as island trades well underneath
higher latitude blocking periodically enhances as pressure
graidents tighten with passage of a series of tropical features to
the south of the state. A favored guidance composite indicates
that this occurs even with weakening of high pressure bridged to
the north of the state in response to the block.  Showers have
increased slightly with limited added moisture associated with a
lead tropical disturbance now passing south of the state as
followed by the Central Pacific Hurricane Center. Additional
opportunities for increased moisture/showers to work into
especially the southern islands may be related to Tropical
Depression Genevieve located near 12.4N 140.1W at 09 UTC whose
weakened remnants should pass just south of the islands in the
Friday/Saturday time frame and there remains even another tropical
disturbance upstream of that near 131W to keep an eye on. The
National Hurricane Center is monitoring this feature, but the
Central Pacific Hurricane Center has now taken over responsibilty
for TD Genevieve as it is now west of 140W.
