HONOLULU (KHON2) A stalled and weakening cold front has raised rain chances for the islands through early Saturday. The weakening cold front could still pack a punch and produce isolated heavy showers for all islands. By early Saturday, stable conditions and trade winds will usher in a drier airmass.
Tonight & Thursday:
- Showers increase: Cloud and shower activity will shift eastward tonight, bringing increased shower chances across the state.
- Thunderstorm risk: A combination of moisture and instability may lead to thunderstorms and heavy showers overnight into Thursday.
- Frontal influence: The strongest activity is expected near a frontal boundary due to converging winds.
- Stream flooding possible: Some elevated streams, especially on Kauai and Oahu, may see minor flooding.
Thursday & Friday:
- Weakening front: The front will weaken, with moderate trade winds developing.
- Lingering moisture: Showers will continue, primarily windward and mauka, with occasional leeward showers and a slight chance of thunderstorms.
