The latest models and ensembles show good agreement that surface
high pressure should build and remain north of Hawaii through this
weekend and into the beginning of next week.  By Tuesday, an
inverted surface trough is evident in the ensemble means that
should slowly track westward across the Islands.  By the end of
the forecast period next Friday, a weakening Hurricane Linda
should still be well east of the Big Island, with the main thing
being elevated surf for east facing beaches.

Trade winds should generally be moderate to breezy for most of the
upcoming week, with perhaps some abatement in conjunction with the
surface trough early next week.  This pattern would support
relatively dry weather across most of Hawaii with clouds and
showers mainly confined to windward terrain.
