391 FXHW01 KWNH 090836 PMDHI Hawaii Extended Forecast Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 436 AM EDT Thu Oct 9 2025 Valid 00Z Fri 10 Oct 2025 - 00Z Fri 17 Oct 2025 Broad but weak southerly flow will be in place across Hawaii over the next day or two, which could allow for land/sea breeze conditions and scattered showers focusing over those convergence areas. Winds should back to a more typical easterly trade direction by the weekend as a midlevel high builds southeast of the state while a weak surface ridge develops as well. Into next week, an upper low is forecast to dive south toward Hawaii, which will provide a rising inversion and increasing lift, while above normal moisture comes in. This will yield increasing rain chances especially for Kauai/Oahu around Monday to Wednesday. There is more model spread on when this upper low will retrograde and exit the state later week, with GFS/GEFS generally faster to move it out than the EC suite. $$
