Rain, even thunderstorms, possible tonight
There’s a chance of heavy showers again tonight until a weather system near Kauai moves away from the islands Wednesday.
The National Weather Service says muggy weather will persist until trade winds slowly begin to return Wednesday.
“It’s a little unstable out there so we could have an isolated locally heavy shower and the slight chance of thunderstorms,” said Matthew Foster, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service. “After midnight, it should start to clear out in leeward areas, but we could still get a few clouds on the windward side.”
The trade winds should stay with us through Sunday, but a tropical storm system may develop and move into our area early next week, Foster said.
The National Hurricane Center is watching an area in the eastern Pacific where a storm could develop in the next 48 hours, he said.
It’s still too early to say if the system will develop into a hurricane or even if it will reach Hawaii.

The storm, if it develops, could disrupt the trade wind flow again, creating more muggy weather next week.
