The Hawaiian weather pattern over the next week remains
highlighted by strong cold frontal passage across the islands
Saturday night and Sunday in a quickly amplifying mid-upper level
flow pattern across much of the Pacific. There is still very good
agreement with this timing and strength and a composite of quite
compatable model and ensemble guidance is preferred. Given
marginal moisture pooling expected along and in advance of the
boundary over the next few days, there should generally be limited
shower potential. The primary impacts will be a fast and strong
wind shift and airmass change leading into early next week. The
potential then exists for another cold front to reach the islands
in about a week as another mid-upper level shortwave impulse digs
toward the state from the northwest, but support for passage is
less certain.
