Puna Weather
Tuesday 14th July 2026
Today through Thursday light easterly winds and a little less humid with widely scattered showers, mostly during the night and early morning hours.
Friday warm and humid with light winds and periods of rain.
Saturday and Sunday moderate easterly trade winds and less humid with widely scattered showers.
Lots of activity to our south, but all of it moves off to the west without threatening us. A band of tropical moisture approaches from the southeast on Friday kicking dew points up again, but that band is pretty narrow and drier air is likely for the weekend.
The ocean temperatures around us are quite warm, so even when it's less humid, it's still going to be pretty humid... and warm. Mostly that's what this summer is likely to look like.
The MJO is still in the western Pacific. Forecast shows it slowly moving to the eastern Pacific in a week or so. That's likely to enhance tropical activity nearer Mexico.
Long range models continue to show high shear and mid-level dry air over us and to our east for at least another week or so, offering protection against hurricanes and the such.
