####018000967#### FXHW01 KWNH 230700 PMDHI Hawaii Extended Forecast Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 300 AM EDT Tue Apr 23 2024 Valid 00Z Wed Apr 24 2024 - 00Z Wed May 01 2024 The subtropical high will remain in place to the north of the state through the week then shift to the northeast and weaken slightly this weekend. Northeast to easterly trade winds will persist, though winds may decrease over the weekend as the high weakens. This pattern will favor precipitation chances each day for windward locations, and conditions will remain mainly dry for southwestern portions of the Islands. A low pressure system is forecast to develop to the northwest on Friday and bring a trailing front towards the northernmost islands next week, but the front will likely be blocked by the subtropical ridge and remain northwest of the state. Impacts from this system are forecast to be minimal. Dolan $$
