HONOLULU (KHON2) - For Sunday, we should see much drier conditions compared to today as a drier air mass moves in from the east. A trough to the northwest of the state will continue to keep winds light to moderate and out of the east-southeast direction. Sea breezes developing during the day time should lead to afternoon clouds with some scattered showers over leeward areas. Due to the drier air mass, any rainfall should remain light with the exception of Kauai, where moderate afternoon showers will be possible due to lingering moisture. But overall shower activity should be much less than today across the state for Sunday. For early next week, high pressure will be centered far northeast of the state, while a trough lingers north of the state. We will continue to see light winds across the western half of the state, with light to moderate east to east-southeast flow over the eastern half of the state. Due to limited moisture, we are not expecting much rainfall early next week, but some light passing showers should be expected over windward areas, as well as some light showers over leeward areas during the afternoon with the sea breezes developing each day. For the second half of next week, guidance has come into better agreement with most global models showing a weaker upper level trough. At the surface, we should see our typical breezy trades return by Thursday. With the weak upper level trough, there is potential for some enhanced trade showers towards the end of the week. Small Craft Advisory until 6 PM HST Sunday for Maui County Windward Waters, Pailolo Channel, Alenuihaha Channel, Big Island Windward Waters, Big Island Leeward Waters.
