Hawaii Extended Forecast Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 800 AM EDT Sat Jun 14 2014 Valid 00Z Sun Jun 15 2014 - 00Z Sun Jun 22 2014 Weakness aloft will linger over the state as sfc high pressure stays near 40N/145W though much of the upcoming week. By later in the week, the ensembles forecast ridging to build to the NW of the 50th state near 30N/170W, which would still keep troughing over Hawai'i. PW values should slowly rise from below climo to near or above climo by midweek. The 00Z ECMWF/GFS are a bit more aggressive with higher PW values Wed-Sat than the ensembles over the Big Island but otherwise fall within the ensemble spread. Generally light precip is expected with locally heavier on the SW side of the Big Island. Fracasso
