Puna Weather

Thursday 25th December 2025

Mostly dry today.

Scattered shower tonight into Friday morning.

Widely scattered showers late Friday through Sunday.

Light to moderate easterly winds today decreasing to light on Friday and turning to southeasterly Saturday and Sunday. VOG is possible Friday through Sunday for some areas.

An area of higher low level moisture is off to our east this morning (satellite image). Relatively weak trade winds will turn this moisture into some windward showers tonight and Friday morning.

A front passing by to our north turns the flow over us to southeasterly Saturday and Sunday (surface animation).

Next week lower pressure and cooler air moves in aloft (500mb anomaly animation) leading to an elevated and weaker inversion for better chances of rain.
