Honolulu is starting the weekend with clear skies, mostly sunny weather and only a small chance of a passing shower. Temperatures will climb from the mid-70s early Saturday to about 86 degrees in the afternoon, while east-northeast trade winds pick up enough to make the breeze hard to miss.

Saturday’s forecast calls for isolated showers, with light to moderate easterly trade winds. The National Weather Service in Honolulu expects a drier air mass and lower humidity to keep skies generally bright through Sunday.

Sunday Brings Stronger Trade Wind Gusts

Sunday should remain mostly sunny, with a high near 85 and isolated showers still possible. East-northeast winds will run 14 to 22 mph, with gusts as high as 31 mph, so beachgoers, cyclists and anyone setting up outdoors may want to secure lighter gear.

Saturday night will be partly cloudy with a low near 75, followed by a few showers after midnight. The odds of rain remain low through the weekend, but wind-driven showers could still make brief appearances, especially in windward and mauka areas.

Showers Become More Common Early Next Week

The pattern turns less breezy Monday through Wednesday as trade winds weaken, with a few afternoon showers possible early to midweek. Monday brings a 0–10% chance of rain during the day and 15% Monday night.

For now, Honolulu’s weekend outlook is more “sunny with a breeze” than washout. The main weather shift is expected after the weekend, when lighter winds and more frequent showers could make outdoor plans a little more changeable.
