Honolulu is heading into a breezy Saturday with mostly drier conditions. The trade winds will keep the air moving through the weekend.

Drier Weekend, Strong Trade Winds

Saturday afternoon should remain mostly drier, with moderate to locally breezy trade winds. Sunday should also see continued moderate to locally breezy trade winds.

That means comfortable conditions for many outdoor plans, but not especially calm ones. Beachgoers should expect moderate surf along east-facing shores, while south-facing beaches may see above-average surf through the weekend, according to the National Weather Service Honolulu.

Showers Make A Modest Return Next Week

Monday stays drier, with breezy trades continuing. Tuesday will bring increased shower activity.

Additional moisture is expected from Tuesday potentially through Thursday, bringing enhanced showers.

The updated outlook is a drier and less dramatic turn from earlier forecasts for a wetter midweek stretch. Hoodline’s Friday report tracked the unsettled weather leading into the weekend, while the latest forecast now favors drier conditions through Monday before shower activity increases Tuesday.

What To Expect Around Honolulu

Plan on breezy conditions Saturday through Monday, with shower activity increasing Tuesday. Friday could bring scattered showers, with the greatest chances from morning into early afternoon and gusts around 28 mph.
