Hawaii Extended Forecast Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 725 AM EST Wed Jan 27 2016 Valid 00Z Thu Jan 28 2016 - 00Z Thu Feb 04 2016 Models and ensembles remain in reasonably good agreement with the forecast for Hawaii for the next week and a composite solution remains favored to mitigate less predictable smaller scale forecast components. Forecast spread and uncertainty are less than average in this pattern. The islands will be under a surface ridge on the far periphery of eastern Pacific high pressure into Thursday in dry/light flow, while a wavy front slowly approaches from the northwest. This front/showers stall near Kauai and gradually dissipates Sat-Mon as another shower/moisture pooling front approaches from the NW that may reach the islands around Tue. More typical trade flow may then develop with post-frontal high pressure passing to the north of the islands. Schichtel
