HONOLULU (HawaiiNewsNow) – Strong easterly winds, especially during the daytime hours, will allow any fires that occur in leeward areas to spread quickly.
The winds have already prompted a WIND ADVISORY to be extended until 6 p.m. Tuesday for portions of Molokai, Lanai, Maui, Kahoolawe and Hawaii Island, where east winds of 20 to 30 miles per hour and gusts to 50 miles per hour are possible.
No fire watches or warnings have been issued by the National Weather Service because critical fire weather conditions have not been reached. However, your weather team believes that dry brush in leeward areas that are in drought, combined with gusty winds, will increase the threat for dangerous fire conditions.
Trade winds are expected to weaken slightly during the back half of this week and the weekend. Windward and mauka showers are expected throughout the rest of this week. Leeward regions will remain mostly dry.
The next small, long-period south swell is expected to arrive late Tuesday.
Surf along east-facing shores will be rough and choppy throughout the next few days.

Hawaii’s most active and popular volcano, Kilauea, is preparing to put on a show as geologists forecast the volcano’s 44th eruption in the coming days.
The United States Geological Survey said that precursory eruption activity is occurring as the active volcano prepares to erupt – one of Earth’s most captivating natural spectacles.
According to the USGS, the forecast for the start of episode 44 is between April 6 to April 14.
On Saturday morning, the south vent overflowed at 6:11 a.m. HST, with lava flowing from the south vent at least 10 times through small dome fountains.
One of the most active volcanoes in the world, Kilauea has been erupting episodically within its summit caldera since December 23, 2024 – and is preparing to do so for the 44th time in the coming days.
Eruption episodes at Kilauea typically last from a few hours to one day, with some lasting up to 8 ½ days of lava flow.
When the volcano comes alive, it is a sight to behold.
Fountains of red to yellow lava shoot more than 1,000 feet in the air out of boiling lakes of lava – a scene that annually attracts crowds of tourists to Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park to witness the phenomenon.
For those fortunate enough to witness a Kilauea eruption, the natural spectacle is as dangerous as it is mesmerizing.
According to the USGS, the volcano lets off threatening hazardous gases, especially to those with heart or respiratory issues, infants, children and pregnant women.
When the volcano is erupting, unsafe ash is abrasive and can irritate eyes, skin and the respiratory system.
Can’t make the trip to Hawaii to witness the 44th episode? Don’t worry.
The USGS operates several live webcams at Kilauea, streaming continuously on their website—stay tuned for any signs of eruption. You won’t want to miss it.
