Hawaii Extended Forecast Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 754 AM EDT Mon Oct 27 2014 Valid 00Z Tue Oct 28 2014 - 00Z Tue Nov 04 2014 Into Tue expect trades to be on the lighter side as eastern Pacific high pressure slowly weakens, so there may be somewhat more than the average influence from sea and land breeze boundaries on shower activity. Strong high pressure crossing the central Pacific north of the islands will help strengthen the trades starting on Wed. Low level flow will be confluent, with sporadic boundary layer modest convergence maxima and plumes of enhanced precipitable water aiding the usual terrain driven ascent in producing showers. A 500 mb weakness is forecast to linger over the islands during the weekend. Model agreement on the low level anticyclone timing is better than average through next weekend. Differences begin to develop early next week on the eventual approach of the next upper level trough, with the 06z gfs showing a shorter wavelength trough than the other models/means on Monday 03 Nov. Trades should begin to relax early next week as high pressure continues moving eastward away from the islands. Petersen
