Great weather for Martin Luther King Jr. Weekend

HONOLULU (HawaiiNewsNow) – FIRST ALERT WEATHER: Dangerous & life-threatening surf exists on the North and West shores of islands from Niʻihau to Molokaʻi, North shore of Maui and West side of Hawaii island. Check with lifeguards before entering the water or better yet watch from high up on the dry sand.

A weak cold front over Maui County brought clouds and showers last night as it pulls away from the islands. A cooler and strongly stable airmass is building into the forecast area in its wake. That means great weather statewide today thru Tuesday. Lots of sunshine, very little rainfall the next 48 hours. The weather will be stable thru Monday evening.

We loose the trade winds in anticipation of another cold front that will approach the Hawaiian Islands mid to late next week. However, models are struggling greatly to agree. Thursday onward represents a period of interest going forward.

A great tool to have is our First Alert Weather App and interactive radar.

Surf Heights: North shore 22-26 feet; west side is 15-20; town spots are 3-5 thru today and east side 2-4.

Next 7 days: Saturday thru Monday, moderate trade winds and great conditions. Winds light Tuesday in anticipation of another cold front Wednesday into Thursday with some moisture continuing Friday.
