Hawaii Extended Forecast Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 302 AM EDT Thu Sep 02 2021 Valid 00Z Fri Sep 03 2021 - 00Z Fri Sep 10 2021 A preferred composite of reasonably well clustered model and ensemble guidance indicates that moisture will be on the decrease after today with the slow exit of an upper trough now located just to the west of the state. Trades should return to moderate to brisk levels for the rest of this week as high pressure builds and bridges to the north and northeast of the state in a pattern favoring windward terrain showers. Pesky new upper trough settlement over the state this weekend is expected to linger at least into next midweek and act to ease veering trades and increasingly act to build moisture/lift for local downpours.
