Latest guidance is agreeable and consistent for the forecast
pattern through next Tuesday.  Expect winds to be light to
moderate from the southeast initially, becoming somewhat stronger
and more easterly late this week into early next week.  This
transition corresponds to fairly strong surface high pressure
tracking well north of the state around midweek then settling over
and drifting southeast from around 40N 150W.  The combination of
precipitable water values likely averaging in the 1.0-1.5 inch
range and a persistent weakness aloft, around the periphery of a
strong ridge well north of the area, may support pockets of
heavier rainfall during the period.  The majority of activity
should focus over windward terrain but it is possible that some
rain may occasionally reach other locales.
