ITO Departures

Moderate trades are holding steady with scattered showers working through windward slopes tonight and into early morning. Leeward and dry areas stay mostly clear between the rain pulses.

Through Tuesday, expect moderate to rough surf on north and east-facing shores while south-facing beaches stay calm. Windward areas will see the heaviest showers overnight to early morning—showers move quickly, so no major flooding. A Small Craft Advisory is in effect through Monday morning for waters around Maui County and the Big Island. By midweek, trades ease slightly as a weak low develops, and showers continue but may shift. Next weekend could turn wetter with more tropical moisture possible, though that's still uncertain.

Leeward beach days and afternoon activities work best right now. Save windward hikes for after sunrise, and stick to calmer leeward coasts if you're planning water sports.
