What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this high wind warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Honolulu, HI wrote its last area forecast discussion before this high wind warning went out at Jan 28, 9:00 PM HST, 6 hours 1 minute earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jan 28, 9:00 PM HST, 6 hours 1 minute before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Honolulu HI 900 PM HST Tue Jan 28 2025 .SYNOPSIS... Cool and pleasant conditions will linger overnight before quickly transitioning through the day Wednesday as winds shift out of the south-southeast ahead of a strengthening low approaching from the northwest. This strong winter low pressure system will pass just north of Kauai on Thursday, with a cold front advancing down the island chain Thursday through Friday. The threat of flash flooding, damaging south to southwest winds, and strong to severe thunderstorms will accompany the front. Conditions will quickly improve behind the front Friday night into the weekend, continuing through early next week. && .DISCUSSION... Mostly dry and cool conditions will linger overnight and into early Wednesday, with dewpoints hovering in the 50s. The best chance for any light showers will be over the far eastern end of the state, where a residual moisture axis associated with an old front remains. A quick transition period is anticipated through the day Wednesday in response to strong low pressure approaching from the northwest. The low-level flow will quickly respond and increase, while veering out of the south to southeast through the day, drawing warm and moist air northward. Dewpoints will surge into the mid to upper 60s by the end of the day. Isentropic upglide combined with the moistening boundary layer will support increasing rain chances by the end of the day, mostly in the form of isolated to scattered afternoon showers favoring south through east facing slopes. Guidance remains in good agreement and depicts an active weather pattern unfolding late Wednesday night through early Friday, with strong surface low pressure passing nearby to the north and its attendant cold front advancing down the island chain. Kinematic (0-6 km bulk shear values of 35-45 kt, with up to 40-50 knot winds at 850 mb) and thermodynamic profiles (MUCAPE of 1500-2000 J/kg) continue to support a potential significant event evolving across the state, with impacts ranging from damaging southwest winds (downsloping into north thru windward sections), to strong to severe thunderstorms, and flash flooding. Additionally, deep convection will support the potential for periods of heavy snow over the Big Island Summits late Thursday through Friday. Conditions will quickly improve over the weekend as the upper trough and surface low lift northeastward and away from the region and high pressure builds in its wake. && .AVIATION... Moderate N-NE winds will weaken and veer to the E overnight, and become SE Wednesday as low pressure develops NW of the islands. Low cigs and SHRA will favor windward and mauka areas, with periods of MVFR CIG/VIS in SHRA. As this next system impacts the islands Wednesday night through Friday morning expect conds to deteriorate with high winds, heavy rain, thunderstorms, and IFR or worse conds. AIRMET Sierra is in effect for mtn obsc for windward Big Island. As this next system moves in expect this to be expanded to all islands. && .MARINE... A strong low latitude low pressure system will approach the Hawaii region from the West on Wednesday. Winds will veer southeasterly as this low swiftly moves into the region. South to southwest winds will quickly strengthen from Wednesday afternoon into Thursday, with gale-force winds possible over Kauai coastal waters and the Kauai Channel. We will look closely at these gale threats tonight to consider expanding the Gale Watch eastward into coastal waters near Oahu. Wednesday night into Friday, a strong low pressure passing through the region will increase the threats of strong thunderstorms, gale-force winds, and periods of heavy rain across the state. Wind threats will include strong to gale force southwest wind speeds through Thursday with erratic and damaging wind gusts possible near any thunderstorms. A cold front will also move across the islands during this time period. Gentle to fresh westerly to northwesterly winds will build in rapidly behind the front along with improving marine weather trends. Marine Weather Warnings are likely during this time due to the high potential for strong thunderstorms. A Gale Watch remains in effect for the waters around Kauai Wednesday night through Thursday. A Small Craft Advisory will also be needed for all Hawaiian coastal waters during this time period. A new north-northwest swell will continue to fill in tonight and should peak late tonight into Wednesday morning below advisory thresholds. A larger north swell should fill in later Thursday into Friday, which could reach advisory levels for north facing shores. Several reinforcing pulses are expected Friday into early next week as the swell veers more northeasterly and could produce advisory level surf along east facing shores due to the shift in swell direction this weekend. A moderate west-northwest swell will eventually move in with the overlapping north to northeast swells building in on Monday and then peaking by Tuesday. Surf along south-facing shores will remain small into Wednesday. Rough and choppy surf will develop along south and west facing shores from Wednesday night through Friday due to the strong south to southwesterly kona winds developing from the passing strong low pressure system. && .FIRE WEATHER... Critical fire weather conditions not expected through the forecast period. && .HFO WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... Flood Watch from Wednesday evening through Friday morning for all Hawaii islands- High Wind Watch from Wednesday evening through late Thursday night for all Hawaii islands- Winter Storm Watch from late Wednesday night through late Thursday night for Haleakala Summit. Winter Storm Watch from late Wednesday night through Friday morning for Big Island Summits. Gale Watch from Wednesday evening through Thursday afternoon for Kauai Northwest Waters-Kauai Windward Waters-Kauai Leeward Waters-Kauai Channel. && DISCUSSION...Gibbs AVIATION...Walsh MARINE...Bohlin FIRE WEATHER...Gibbs
