Synopsis
:
A trough in the northwest offshore waters will continue to move northwest, as trade winds have begun to fill in across the coastal waters from east to west. A Small Craft Advisory (SCA) has been issued through Saturday afternoon for the windier waters and channels around Maui County and the Big Island. As trade winds continue to strengthen over the weekend as Tropical Storm Moke passes south of the state, the SCA may need to be expanded starting Saturday night through Sunday. High seas will most likely be over the eastern half of the coastal waters. Across the offshore waters, a Tropical Storm warning as been issued as Tropical Storm conditions are expected Saturday night into Sunday across the southern offshore waters.

 

North and East Shores: Gradually turning strong to very strong and gusty through the weekend

 

South and West shores:  Gradually turning stronger and gusty through the weekend


Looking Further Ahead: 
After Moke passes by to the south, winds will snap back to typical summer trade winds…that is until the next tropical system gets close
