641 FXHW01 KWNH 040811 PMDHI Hawaii Extended Forecast Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 410 AM EDT Fri Jul 04 2025 Valid 00Z Sat Jul 05 2025 - 00Z Sat Jul 12 2025 Surface high pressure positioned north of the islands will help maintain breezy to windy trades over the next several days. A weakening frontal boundary will push slowly south and allow for rainfall to focus over the Big Island before shifting farther south and dissipating by Tuesday. The trades will focus the majority of the rainfall to the eastern slops of the Big Island however some rain my spread to the leeward areas. Late this week into the weekend, the surface high is forecast to drift southeastward, and meanwhile an upper trough pushing a cold front will approach west of the state. This should permit winds to gradually weaken to moderate level while veering some and reorienting best rain chances on the southeastern sides of the islands. Model guidance shows moisture levels increasing by early next week ahead of the front, so will continue to monitor for possible increases in rain amounts by that time. Campbell $$
