SYNOPSIS
Breezy easterly trade winds will become strong and gusty on Thursday as high pressure strengthens north of the state. Showers will favor windward and mountain areas with some reaching the leeward areas. Drier and more stable conditions will return over the weekend, with the easterly trades easing into the moderate to breezy range. Rainfall chances could trend up again early next week as an upper disturbance moves through and trade winds increase again.
DISCUSSION
Guidance remains in good agreement and shows the pressure gradient steadily tightening across the region overnight through Thursday as high pressure builds to the north. The easterly trades will respond and become strong and gusty Thursday through Friday, particularly on Thursday as the wind speeds peak. This has prompted a Wind Advisory for the typically windier areas of Maui County and the Big Island Thursday through Thursday night.
In addition to the winds, spotty windward shower coverage will persist, especially overnight through the morning periods due to a sufficient amount of low-level moisture and a lingering upper trough in the area. These showers will be brief with minimal accumulations anticipated.
Drier and more stable conditions will briefly return over the weekend as upper heights rise and PWs dip to around an inch.
Trade winds are expected to ease into the moderate range due to a weakness forming in the ridge as a front passes to the north.
High pressure moving into the area from the west pacific is expected to elevate island trade winds again into the breezy to strong range. Model differences still remain with the GFS being stronger with the winds, while the ECMWF has a more moderate solution. Regardless of these differences, both depict an upper trough digging southward over the region creating an increased chance of heavier trade wind showers Monday through midweek.
AVIATION
Easterly trades will remain gusty as high pressure builds north of the state. Showers will favor windward locations and rainfall will be greatest in coverage overnight into the morning hours, with the occasional spill over to leeward areas. Periods of MVFR ceilings and visibility will occur within more robust showers.
AIRMET Sierra remains in effect above 2000 feet for north through east sections of Maui, Oahu and Kauai due to tempo mountain obscuration from low clouds and showers. This AIRMET will likely be cancelled later tonight as cloud cover decreases.
AIRMET Tango for tempo moderate turbulence lee of the island terrain remains in effect as winds near ridgetop have increased to near 25 to 30 knots. This AIRMET will likely continue into tomorrow.
MARINE
High pressure north of the state will move eastward and strengthen over the next few days. Easterly trade winds will respond and increase to strong to gale force through the rest of the work week. A Gale Warning remains in effect from 6 AM Thursday through Thursday night for Alenuihaha Channel and has been expanded to include the Pailolo Channel. A Small Craft Advisory (SCA) remains in effect through Thursday night for all remaining coastal waters. Next week, another high pressure building in from the northwest is expected to continue the breezy trend across the coastal waters.
Strong trades will create rough and choppy surf along east facing shores which will continue into next week. The current fading small northwest (310 degree) swell has dropped below seasonal averages this afternoon. A small medium period reinforcement swell from the north- northwest (330 degree) is expected late tonight into Thursday keeping surf elevated across north and west facing shores. A series of small medium to long period northwest swells are expected through early next week. Mainly background surf will continue for south facing shores through the weekend with some long period energy arriving early next week.
