Trade winds will continue across Honolulu with moderate to breezy conditions through the week, supported by high pressure over the region. The forecast calls for mostly dry and stable weather, with some increase in windward and mauka showers today. Dry and gusty conditions may also raise fire weather concerns in leeward areas, according to the National Weather Service.
Pilots can expect moderate to brisk trade winds, with low clouds and showers possible over windward and mauka areas. Most of the region will remain under VFR conditions. No AIRMETs are currently in effect, as reported by the National Weather Service.
A Small Craft Advisory is in effect for waters around Maui County and the Big Island through Thursday evening due to trade winds from a high-pressure ridge north of Hawaii. The winds will keep surf rough along eastern shores, while northern shores will remain mostly flat. Minor coastal flooding is possible during afternoon high tides linked to the lunar cycle, and a Coastal Flood Statement is in place, as stated by the National Weather Service.
