Puna Weather
Wednesday 2nd April 2025
Today mostly dry with moderate southeast winds, possibly becoming breezy during the afternoon.
Thursday and Friday mostly dry with light winds.
Widespread VOG is possible today through Friday.
Saturday through Monday light to moderate easterly trade winds with widely scattered showers, mostly during the night and early morning hours.
Showers increase to scattered beginning Tuesday.
A low to our west supports southeast winds over us today. The low weakens and passes by far to our north for light winds Thursday and Friday (1st graphic).
Beginning this weekend and lasting until late next week a ridge of high pressure to our north supports easterly trade winds over us (2nd graphic). The easterly wind direction is more favorable for showers, but a ridge overhead keeps the rainfall totals light through Monday, after which time heights aloft lower (3rd graphic) weakening and lifting our inversion for thicker clouds and better shower coverage.
