Hawaii Extended Forecast Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 817 AM EDT Fri Jun 30 2017 Valid 00Z Sat Jul 01 2017 - 00Z Sat Jul 08 2017 It remains the case that a favored composite of reasonably well clustered models and ensembles continue to show an upper trough moving westward today into next week just north/over Hawai'i as an upper high develops to the north and northwest of the region. Just prior to the upper trough's approach, a surge in precipitable water is swinging through the area from the northeast. The upper trough itself will maintain elevated PW values well into next week. In this pattern, expect some light to modest rains as enhanced over windward terrain by trade flow that increases after the weekend as surface high pressure builds to the north of the state. Schichtel
