Hawaii Extended Forecast Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 830 AM EDT Wed Jul 11 2018 Valid 00Z Thu Jul 12 2018 - 00Z Thu Jul 19 2018 Upper-level ridging will build through the region during the next few days. A mid-level weakness will move westward just to the north of Hawai'i Friday into next week per the models/ensembles, along with an increase in precipitable water values. Isolated windward showers are forecast for rest of the week given broad subsidence and breezy trades. The GFS was still among the highest model/ensemble member with its PW values (GEFS mostly higher than the ECMWF ensembles as well) but a compromise between the GFS/ECMWF would be acceptable. QPF values may approach several inches in favored windward/mauka areas over the next week, especially this weekend into next week. Fracasso
