Hawaiʻi Weather Forecast
Today’s Weather Brief · AI-voiced · ~45s
Read the transcript
Partly cloudy on the windward side, mostly sunny on the leeward side. Trade winds are strong and will stay that way through Wednesday, bringing passing showers to windward slopes.
Surf builds this weekend—a south swell is coming in and could reach warning levels on south-facing beaches by Saturday and Sunday. Winds ease late Thursday, and you'll see more organized showers Friday through Saturday as a system moves nearby. Small Craft Advisory is up through Wednesday evening, so water's rough if you're thinking about boats.
Stick to leeward beaches and the sunny side through Wednesday. Save your snorkeling for after the weekend swell passes.
