Puna Weather
Monday 22nd June 2026
Today light easterly winds with widely scattered showers. VOG is possible.
Tuesday moderate easterly trade winds and humid with scattered to numerous windward showers. Some of the showers could be heavy at times, especially late Tuesday when isolated thunder is also possible.
Wednesday through Friday moderate to breezy easterly trade winds with scattered windward showers, mostly during the night and early morning hours.
High pressure is already starting to build to our northeast with moderate trades due to arrive on Tuesday and last through at least Friday.
A low level trough to our east heads our way on the easterly trade flow (satellite image). As the trough passes overhead tomorrow we initially see higher humidity and more frequent showers, but in the afternoon/evening, when the center of the trough is to our west, we will be on the eastern (wetter) side of the trough where we will also see some instability with CAPE rising to over 1000 J/kg and some low level convergence, all combining to bring the risk of heavier rains and potentially thunder into early Wednesday.
More typical trade wind conditions are on tap Wednesday through Friday.
