.DISCUSSION...
A surface trough near Midway will slowly move eastward and will produce unsettled
weather over the area the next several days with passing showers moving in from the southeast
and south. Overall, the main instability looks to stay north of the area, but an isolated
thunderstorm can`t be ruled out for Lisianski. A ridge of high pressure will strengthen
just north of the area this weekend, which will bring the return of stable and drier
conditions. No significant swells are expected through this weekend.
