A wet weather pattern remains in place for parts of Hawaii. A
draped front currently near Maui will gradually weaken, but its
deepening moisture axis will remain mostly over the southeastern
islands this week with pooled precipitable water values
potentially ranging upwards to 1.5-1.75" at times. There is a
threat of heavy local downpours and WFO Honolulu has issued a
flash flood watch for Maui. Potential should slowly lessen in
coverage and intensity and expand northwestward into
Sunday/Monday. The pressure gradient is forecast to relax and
trades should weaken by Friday/Saturday. A favored model composite
then show heights building next Sun/Mon and trades should pick up
again next week more in earnest as surface high pressure
strengthens to the northeast of the state.
