Gentle trades with mostly dry conditions should persist through Saturday. Moderate trades will briefly return early next week, bringing back the typical windward and mauka showers. A slight weakening and veering of the trade wind flow may unfold for the latter part of next week.
Issued at 349 AM HST Fri Jun 12 2026 Gentle trades with localized land and sea breezes will persist through Saturday. A drier airmass in place should lead to mostly VFR conditions, but some brief MVFR ceilings can't be ruled out with any isolated showers, especially over leeward and interior areas during the afternoons and windward areas during the overnight hours.
No AIRMETs are in effect.

Gentle to moderate east-northeasterly winds are expected through Saturday as a weak front passing far north of the state keeps trade winds tempered. Moderate to fresh easterly trades will return Sunday through early next week as a surface ridge strengthens north of the area.
Small pulses of southerly swell will bring somewhat below average surf to south facing shores today. Surf will begin to trend up on Saturday as forerunners from a large, long-period swell originating from southeast of New Zealand arrive. Surf is expected to peak Sunday into Monday, approaching warning levels, but most likely to remain at advisory levels. This swell will also coincide with the peak monthly tides which may lead to significant wave runup and minor coastal flooding during the first half of next week, particularly during the peak daily high tide cycles. South shore surf will remain elevated through much of next week due to the slow decline of this large south swell and a series of continued overlapping southerly swells.
Very little swell energy is arriving along north facing shores today, keeping surf tiny to non-existent. A small bump in surf is possible along north and west facing shores with the arrival of a small northwest swell and a smaller north swell early next week. Weaker than average trade winds near and upstream of the islands will produce below average surf along east facing shores through the weekend and into early next week.
None.
