Gloomy Monday ahead

Surface high pressure located far northeast of the islands is still the main driver to these recent light to locally breezy winds. A weak surface trough west of the state will maintain an east to southeast component to the winds early today. Energy diving into a broad upper level trough west of the state, with higher moisture streaming in from the southwest ahead of this trough, will increase the chance of more frequent shower activity over the western half of the island chain today. An east southeast flow pattern this afternoon will likely focus showers along more eastern-facing exposures and mauka slopes. Sheltered leeward areas will experience daytime sea breeze-induced thicker clouds and intermittent rain. Trades will return by Tuesday night and this will focus showers over windward-facing upslope mauka and within higher terrain. This typical trade pattern will hold through the remainder of the week.
