Hawaii Extended Forecast Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 224 AM EST Mon Feb 01 2021 Valid 00Z Tue Feb 02 2021 - 00Z Tue Feb 09 2021 Trades should weaken and trend more southeasterly over the next couple of days as a well defined cold front approaches from the west. Guidance remains quite consistent with this scenario, bolstering forecast confidence. Expect the front and amplified upper troughing will reach the islands midweek, accompanied by moderate to heavy rainfall/thunderstorms. Precipitable water pooling on the front may reach 1.5". The front and enhanced instability/moisture/precipitation will work progressively through the islands leading into a drier period. However, expect some showers over the Big Island later week in proximity to the slow to dislodge main upper low/trough. Schichtel
