Hawaii Extended Forecast Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 756 AM EDT Sun Sep 25 2016 Valid 00Z Mon Sep 26 2016 - 00Z Mon Oct 03 2016 Central Pacific high pressure that will eventually settle into the eastern Pacific will promote fairly steady trades at moderate to brisk strength for most of the period. Showers will tend to favor windward locations but a little activity may occasionally reach other areas as well. For most of the coming week GFS/ECMWF runs indicate that precipitable water values should vary between 1-1.50 inches. The models roughly agree that there should be some increase in moisture next weekend with PWATs possibly reaching at least 1.75 inches. Some guidance suggests that a weak upper circulation may evolve to the west or northwest of the state by that time, helping to pull up moisture from the lower latitudes. Confidence in specifics is modest due to the relatively small scale and weak nature of the potential feature. Rausch
