Models and ensembles agree that an active and progressive Pacific
storm track holds the bulk of energy north of Hawaii for the first
week of 2016. However, the flow will periodically and increasingly
effect the Hawaiian Islands underneath in a pattern with gradually
lowering heights. Weak frontal showers lingering over the southern
islands today will give way to a period of mainly dry conditions
between systems in weak trade flow. A favored guidance composite
solution suggests a  stalling front early-mid next week may linger
along/just north of the state prior to another frontal approach
heading into next weekend. These modest shower and moisture
focusing features are supported as a series of low systems pass to
the north in the energetic/slowly amplifying mid-latitude based
flow. The late week front may have more surge into the state by
next weekend in amplifying supporting flow.
