AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE HONOLULU HI
400 AM HST SAT JUN 16 2007

.SYNOPSIS...DRIER AIR WILL BE OVERSPREADING THE ISLANDS THIS WEEKEND
AFTER A MINOR CLOUD AND SHOWER BAND MOVES ONTO WINDWARD SHORES THIS
MORNING. A FEW MORE WINDWARD AND MAUKA SHOWERS WILL RETURN BY
MONDAY. HIGH PRESSURE NORTH OF THE ISLANDS WILL KEEP MODERATE TRADES
BLOWING FOR THE NEXT FEW DAYS.

&&

.DISCUSSION...A NARROW 30 MILE WIDE BAND OF CLOUDS AND SOME SHOWERS
WILL BE MOVING ACROSS THE ISLANDS THIS MORNING. SATELLITE AND MODEL
DATA SUGGEST THIS WILL BE THE LAST OF THE SHOWER BANDS TO AFFECT THE
ISLANDS FOR A DAY OR TWO AS THE TRADES BRING IN DRIER AIR AND WEAK
UPPER LEVEL RIDGING BUILDS IN ALONG WITH WARMER MID-LEVEL
TEMPERATURES. OF COURSE IT/S ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO COMPLETELY RULE
OUT A FEW WINDWARD AND MAUKA SHOWERS THIS TIME OF YEAR...BUT ON THE
WHOLE WE EXPECT SHOWER ACTIVITY TO DECREASE AFTER THIS MORNING...AND
IT SHOULD CONTINUE FAIRLY DRY UNTIL MOISTURE BEGINS TO GRADUALLY
INCREASE AGAIN AFTER THE WEEKEND. MORE TYPICAL WINDWARD AND MAUKA
SHOWER ACTIVITY IS EXPECTED TO RETURN THEN.

SUBTROPICAL RIDGING TO THE NORTH OF THE ISLANDS WILL REMAIN A BIT
WEAKER THAN USUAL...THOUGH NOT WEAK ENOUGH TO TAKE DOWN SMALL CRAFT
ADVISORIES IN THE NORMALLY WINDY MARINE ZONES. THERE IS GOOD MODEL
CONSENSUS ABOUT STRONGER HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING NORTH OF THE ISLANDS
TOWARD THE MIDDLE AND LATTER PART OF NEXT WEEK SO IT COULD BECOME
RATHER BREEZY STARTING ABOUT THURSDAY.

WE WILL EXTEND THE WIND ADVISORY FOR HALEAKALA SUMMIT THROUGH NOON.
MODEL GUIDANCE SHOWS THAT THE WINDS ALOFT SHOULD DIMINISH TODAY BUT
WINDS AT PRESS TIME ARE STILL JUST OVER ADVISORY CRITERIA.

&&

.MARINE...WE HAVE CANCELLED THE SOUTH SHORE HIGH SURF ADVISORY AS
THE SOUTH SWELL GRADUALLY DIMINISHES. A LONG FETCH OF TRADE WINDS TO
THE EAST OF THE ISLANDS WILL GENERATE AN INCREASING SHORT PERIOD
EAST SWELL...ENOUGH TO CAUSE ROUGH...HIGH SURF ON EAST FACING
SHORES...AND WE WILL ISSUE AN ADVISORY FOR THESE AREAS.

&&

.HFO WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
WIND ADVISORY FOR HALEAKALA SUMMIT EXTENDED UNTIL NOON.

SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY FOR PAILOLO AND ALENUIHAHA CHANNELS...MAALAEA
BAY AND WATERS SOUTH OF THE BIG ISLAND UNTIL 6 AM SUNDAY.

HIGH SURF ADVISORY FOR EAST FACING SHORES OF KAUAI OAHU MOLOKAI MAUI
AND THE BIG ISLAND UNTIL 6 AM SUNDAY.
