Puna Weather
Friday 31st October 2025
Today through Monday widely scattered showers during the day, increasing to scattered night and early mornings. Winds mostly light from the east, turn to southeasterly late Saturday into early Monday, then return to easterly.
A mid-level low moves into the region from the north late Saturday through Monday (500mb anomaly animation). The low remains to our west through the period turning our flow to southeasterly and pulling some tropical moisture over us. Temperatures aloft don't look too cold, so heavy rains look unlikely, especially with the light winds and unfavorable wind direction (southeast). The low keeps elevated and weak for thicker clouds, so some of the showers could be heavier.
The ridge rebuilds overhead by mid-week for probably drier weather into next weekend.
Looking past next weekend long range models are showing us with a pattern of mid/upper-level troughs in the region, which would hopefully lead to better rainfall.
