Hawaii Extended Forecast Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 338 AM EDT Tue Aug 04 2020 Valid 00Z Wed Aug 05 2020 - 00Z Wed Aug 12 2020 Today's guidance continues to show a moderate to brisk trade wind pattern through the forecast period with windward/mountain-focused showers that may occasionally stray to some leeward locations. Consensus suggests that the strongest trades will be during the weekend when the supporting surface high well northeast of the state is strongest. Continuity is good with the idea of an area of enhanced moisture (precipitable water values generally above 1.50 inches) passing through during the latter half of the week. An upper level feature crossing the area in this time frame will also promote increased shower activity. With typical differences in specifics there is reasonable agreement that moisture should decrease somewhat for the weekend and early next week. As guidance was starting to hint yesterday, there is a signal for an upper level weakness to reach the area around next Monday-Tuesday. This may lead to a rebound in rainfall but likely to a lesser degree than expected during the latter half of this week. Rausch
