Puna Weather
Saturday 9th May 2026
Today through Thursday light to moderate easterly trade winds with widely scattered showers, mostly during the night and early morning hours.
A broad surface ridge to our north supports easterly trade winds for us through Thursday (surface animation). Upstream moisture is limited so it shouldn't be too humid and less than normal rainfall.
Our next potential weather maker is a possible jet stream trough Friday/Saturday (200mb animation). A trough like this is capable of pulling tropical moisture over us and creating voggy conditions. At this point confidence is low, but I'll keep an eye on this.
