The subtropical high will remain in place to the north of the

state around 30-35N through the end of the week, and then shift to

the northeast and weaken slightly this weekend. 

East-northeasterly trade winds will persist, though winds may

decrease slightly over the weekend and veer more to the east or

east-southeast as the high retreats weakens.  This pattern will

favor precipitation chances each day for the favored east-facing

terrain, 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 frontal

boundary towards the far northwestern Islands next week, but the

front will likely be blocked by the subtropical ridge and remain

northwest of the state, keeping the most impactful weather well

offshore through at least the middle of next week.
