Puna Weather
Tuesday 10th February 2026
Today moderate to breezy trade winds from the east with only a few, mostly brief, showers.
Later today into early Wednesday moderate to breezy east winds with frequent showers, possibly heavy at times.
Late Wednesday through Friday moderate east winds with widely scattered showers, most likely during the night and early morning hours.
Deep moisture from our departing upper level low is just to our north (satellite image) and likely to reach our shores this afternoon or evening. High pressure to our northeast is maintaining east winds over us which will push this moisture up our mountains for windward rain.
A ridge builds overhead Wednesday (500mb chart) for less showers through Friday.
Next weekend models show another trough aloft to our west pulling deep moisture up from the tropics (700-300mb moisture chart). It is not clear if showers will reach us or stay closer to Kauai.
