Synopsis: High pressure far northeast of the islands will persist through the week, supporting moderate to locally strong trade winds. A Small Craft Advisory is currently in effect for the typically windier waters around Maui County and the Big Island. Instability associated with an upper low near the islands will continue the potential for locally heavy showers and/or isolated thunderstorms in portions of the coastal waters through Tuesday morning. However, a drier, more typical trade wind pattern will return to the region on Tuesday.
