The trade winds from the northeast will bring mostly dry conditions to Hawaii with a slight increase in windward showers expected through Friday. However, heavy rain is not in the forecast. The trade winds are expected to strengthen on Thursday and Friday as a high-pressure ridge builds, leading to stable and dry conditions. Light showers may develop on windward slopes due to a weak upper-level trough, but leeward areas will remain dry.
Trades are expected to shift to an easterly direction on Saturday before being replaced by kona winds on Sunday. Despite the change in wind direction, drier than normal conditions are expected to persist through early next week. These weather patterns are expected to bring stable conditions with minimal rainfall to the islands.
Overall, the current weather forecast for Hawaii includes cool trade winds bringing mostly dry conditions with some light showers on windward slopes through Friday. Leeward areas will remain dry as the trade winds strengthen. Although a shift in wind direction is expected over the weekend, dry conditions are anticipated to continue into early next week. Residents and visitors are advised to stay updated on weather forecasts and any potential changes in conditions while enjoying the beautiful Hawaiian islands.
