Puna Weather
Sunday 28th December 2025
Today and tonight a few showers, but only minimal accumulation. Winds light from the southeast.
Monday through Thursday typical trade wind weather with light to moderate easterly winds and scattered windward showers, mostly during the night and early morning hours.
The front to our north exits to the northeast for a return of our trade winds on Monday (surface animation).
The ridge overhead is eroding (500mb anomaly animation) with lower pressure and colder temperatures aloft helping to lift and weaken our subtropical inversion. This means thicker clouds Monday through Thursday, which combines with easterly winds, to bring windward showers as occasional bands of moisture pass over us.
