Hawaii Extended Forecast Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 822 AM EDT Sat Mar 16 2019 Valid 00Z Sun Mar 17 2019 - 00Z Sun Mar 24 2019 The latest models and ensembles reasonably agree that flow amplification will dig an potent mid-upper level trough across and to the north of the state this weekend. This will force a moisture pooling cold front through the state along with an enhanced chance of showers. Post-frontal high pressure bridging to the north of the state into early-mid next week will support drier conditions within a modest trade flow pattern. A favored guidance composite shows that approach of less amplified mid-upper level trough energies heading into next weekend may sag another shower focusing front toward the western islands. This occurs as potent post-frontal high pressure bridges to the north of the state, leading into an increase in trade flow underneath into the state. Schichtel
