Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Honolulu HI
952 AM HST Tue Nov 10 2020

.SYNOPSIS...
High pressure north of the state will keep breezy trade winds
blowing through the week, with particularly windy conditions
expected Wednesday and Thursday. Showers will favor windward and
mauka areas with a stray shower spilling leeward from time to
time. An upper level low moving over the islands may enhance
trade showers Friday through the weekend, while also easing the
trade winds to moderate levels.

&&

.DISCUSSION...
A 1035 mb high is centered far to the north of the state. This
places the islands in a moderate to breezy trade wind environment.
Moisture embedded in the trades is providing for some passing
showers over windward and mauka areas with some brief light
showers falling over select leeward areas at times. A slight
decrease in showers activity is expected by this afternoon with
the exception of the leeward Big Island slopes where daytime
heating will cause clouds and a few showers to form.

The high is forecast to drift southward over the next few days
which will tighten up the pressure resulting in even stronger
trade winds. A Wind Advisory may eventually be required for portions
of the state during the peak of the trades mainly over portions of
Maui County and the Big Island. Satellite imagery shows plenty of
shower bearing clouds upstream of the state so a continuation of
passing showers for windward and mauka areas is expected. The
trade winds will be sufficiently strong enough to allow for some
brief passing showers over some leeward locations as well.

By Friday, an upper level low is forecast to move over the area
from the east. Meanwhile, the surface high will weaken and move
off to the northeast of the area. Trade winds will drop back down
to moderate to locally breezy levels. Moisture embedded in the
trades combined with a less stable airmass in place, will likely
cause for a rather showery pattern to set up especially for
windward and mauka areas. Expect this wetter trade wind pattern to
persist through the weekend.

&&

.AVIATION...
Current satellite and radar imagery shows a fairly extensive area
of low clouds and showers along windward areas of Maui and the Big
Island this morning, with shower activity beginning to increase
over the remaining windward coasts. Strong high pressure north of
the Hawaiian Islands will support breezy to locally strong trade
winds across the state for the next few days. Expect passing showers
with low cloud ceilings over windward and mountain areas with brief
periods of MVFR conditions, especially in the overnight and early
morning hours.

AIRMET Sierra is in effect for tempo mountain obscuration for
north through east sections of the Big Island and Maui. These
conditions should improve around late morning/early afternoon
today. AIRMET Tango is also in effect for low-level turbulence
south and west of mountains over all islands, likely continuing
for the next few days.

&&

.MARINE...
Strong to near gale-force trade winds will prevail for the next
several days as strong surface high pressure builds N of the
islands. As a result, a High Surf Advisory is posted for east
facing shores of most islands, and a Small Craft Advisory is in
effect for all Hawaiian waters. A Gale Watch has been issued for
the Alenuihaha Channel for tonight and Wednesday, as there is a
reasonable possibility that winds strengthen to gale force there.
The high is expected to move E and weaken on Friday and Saturday,
which should lead to a gradual reduction in winds and seas into
the weekend.

Along other shorelines, surf will remain below advisory levels
through the coming weekend. A small NW swell is expected today
and Wednesday, with a slightly larger NNW swell expected to
arrive Friday, peak Saturday, then gradually diminish. Small S
swells will continue into the weekend.

&&

High Surf Advisory until 6 PM HST Thursday for Kauai Windward-
