Not only will the weather be muggy with the chance of rain, but forecasters say vog could move over Oahu as a weather system disrupts the tradewinds for the next few days.

Light and variable winds are bringing tropical moisture over the islands from the south, bringing uncomfortable humidity.

Forecasters expect the hot and humid weather to cause clouds to build up over leeward and interior sections that could bring afternoon showers.

“Showers will become more frequent, especially during the afternoons and early evenings, as a moist and somewhat unstable airmass moves across the area. Locally heavy rainfall and isolated thunderstorms will be possible on the Big Island through Tuesday,” forecasters said.

Southeasterly winds are also expected to bring vog over Oahu and other islands by Tuesday.

The muggy conditions are expected to remain over the islands through Wednesday.

Forecasters expect the cooling tradewinds to return on Thursday.

The forecast for Honolulu and south shores of Oahu calls for highs between 84 and 90 degrees with a 50 percent chance of showers during the day through Wednesday and a 40 to 50 percent chance of rain Thursday.
