The National Weather Service in Honolulu forecasts hot and dry conditions to continue across Hawaii in the coming days. Moderate trade winds and sea breezes are expected, with "little to no rainfall expected," according to the National Weather Service.

The National Weather Service says a low-pressure system north of the islands within a larger high-pressure ridge is keeping dry conditions in place, with strong inversions between 6,000 and 7,000 feet limiting cloud growth and temperatures reaching "upwards of 90 degrees in some areas." Fire weather concerns remain possible. Gentle to locally fresh trade winds are expected through the weekend, increasing by mid-next week. A south swell will peak on Friday near seasonal levels, followed by a northwest swell in early September.

The National Weather Service reports no active warnings or advisories in Hawaii. Fire danger remains low due to light winds, but a "broad high pressure ridge" is forecast to reestablish by mid-next week, which could bring stronger, though non-critical, winds. Aviation conditions are mostly clear, with brief MVFR possible on windward slopes.
