Hawaii Extended Forecast Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 346 AM EDT Thu Nov 04 2021 Valid 00Z Fri Nov 05 2021 - 00Z Fri Nov 12 2021 Persistent upper-level ridging for Hawaii as well as surface high pressure to the north of the state will lead to persistent easterly trade winds through the rest of this week and into next week. These moderate to locally breezy trades could bring isolated rain showers to windward and mountain areas. Increased moisture is currently located over the northern/western islands due to a dissipated front there, which could linger into Friday and produce enhanced shower activity particularly over Kauai and Oahu. Other than this and a possible brief period of increased moisture for the Big Island on Friday, a drier pattern is expected into the middle of next week with normal to below normal levels of moisture, but some windward and mountain showers cannot be ruled out given the trade winds.
