109 FZHW51 PHFO 130119 CWFHI1 Generalized Statewide Coastal Waters Forecast for Hawaii National Weather Service Honolulu HI 319 PM HST Sun Oct 12 2025 .Synopsis for Hawaiian coastal waters... Broad troughing north of Hawaii will be extending south and into the northern nearshore waters through Monday. Energy from the north diving down into the base of this trough, along with a developing upper low, will allow the trough or upper low to settle in over or just west southwest of the islands by Wednesday. This will likely destabilize the atmosphere and increase the chance for mid to late week western water thunderstorms. Strengthening surface high pressure far northeast of the area will drive stronger late week trade winds. $$ Hawaiian waters within 40 nautical miles including the channels- .TONIGHT...East winds 10 to 15 knots.
