Gusty winds begin to die down

The windy and gusty conditions that have been hitting some parts of the islands will start to decrease Sunday when the pressure gradient over the islands weakens as an upper low moves north of the state.

Showers will stick around over windward and mountain areas during most of the week starting Monday. Generally the weather should be mostly dry on Sunday with the exception of a few isolated windward showers..

Relatively dry conditions continue with a stable air mass and strong temperature inversion around 6 to 7 thousand feet. A few showers are moving onto Kauai but otherwise there is sparse cloud cover around the other islands west of the Big Island.

Trade wind weather will continue for the remainder of the week, with some of those windward showers passing over leeward areas, mostly at night and in the early morning hours.

Choppy surf along east facing shores will continue to decline through Monday as several small south swells are expected through the week.

Small swells from the west and east are expected early this week, the small bump coming from distant tropical cyclones.
