Hawaii’s Mountains – Here’s a link to the live webcams on the summit of our tallest mountain Mauna Kea (~13,800 feet high) on the Big Island of Hawaii, and atop the Haleakala Crater (~10,023 feet) on Maui. These webcams are available during the daylight hours here in the islands, and at night whenever there’s a big moon shining down. Also, at night you will be able to see the stars, and the sunrise and sunset too…depending upon weather conditions.

Hawaii’s Broad Brush Weather Overview: High pressure far northeast of the state will maintain moderate to locally breezy trades through the week. Expect fairly typical summertime weather with clouds and showers favoring windward and mountain areas.

Hawaii’s Weather Details: Satellite imagery shows small bands of moisture embedded in the trades with clouds moving into windward and mountain areas. Radar imagery shows some showers falling across the area.

A high pressure is parked well to the northeast of the state. This high is expected to be in place until Sunday, when it will drift off to the north. Due to this high, moderate to breezy trades should continue through Saturday. Once the high starts drifting away the trades should weaken a bit.

While an organized source of moisture upstream is lacking, with a dry and stable airmass overhead, we can expect typical summertime showers and clouds to favor windward and mountain slopes through the forecast period.

Fire weather: Moderate to locally breezy trade winds will continue through the next several days. Afternoon relative humidity should be near summertime norms. Expect typical summertime fire weather conditions into next week.

Hawaii’s Marine Environment: High pressure far northeast of the waters will generate moderate to locally strong trade winds. The Small Craft Advisory that is in effect for the typical windy waters around Maui County and Big Island has been extended through Friday afternoon. Trades may slightly weaken early next week as the high moves further away to the north.

The recent small, long period south swell will continue its decline. A reinforcing longer period south swell is scheduled to arrive Friday night. This minor boost, in tandem with another small, long period south swell arriving Sunday night into Monday, will hold south-facing shore surf to summer averages. East-facing shore surf will remain rough as moderate to fresh trades blow the remainder of the week. A very small northwest swell, originating behind a cold front hanging up far northwest of the islands, may pass through early next week.
