Puna Weather

Sunday 24th May 2026

Today through Friday moderate to breezy east or northeast trade winds with widely scattered showers mostly during the night and early morning hours.

A broad ridge to our north looks to maintain trade winds over our island through the end of the week (surface chart). Heading into the weekend we see a mid-level low approaches from the west (500mb anomaly) and lingers over our island for several days. This feature, combined with intense convection over the tropics, transports increasingly moisture air to the north (700-300hPa moisture). As such, showers and humidity are expected to begin increasing next Sunday.
