Weak high pressure will continue to slide eastward to the north of
the region today as trades briefly resume. Another cold front will
approach Kauai late Monday or early Tuesday as winds veer to
southeasterly and southerly ahead of the front. Showers increase
ahead of the front but ensembles and latest GFS/ECMWF suggest the
majority of the rainfall will stay just north and west of the area
as the upper trough pulls to the northeast. By the end of next
week, heights will slowly rise and stabilize as the front
dissipates to the north of the region and trades remain weak out
of the east-southeast to east. With troughing forecast along 145W,
Hawai'i should remain fairly quiet into next weekend though a
boundary to the north may attempt to slip into the area.
