Puna Weather
Tuesday 3rd February 2026
Today and tonight scattered showers with light to moderate north winds. Winds could be briefly gusty at times.
Wednesday and Thursday mostly dry with cold nights and light winds.
Friday light southerly winds and continued mostly dry.
Saturday showers increasing through the day, becoming scattered by night.
Sunday and most of next week moderate to breezy easterly trade winds with scattered windward showers.
A front is currently moving over our island (satellite image). Behind the front is dry and stable cold air.
Heading into the weeked we have an upper level trough approaching from the northwest (500mb anomaly animation). This feature stalls to our west bringing cooler air aloft to the region. This will lift and weaken our inversion allowing for taller clouds and a better chance of showers. There is a chance for some mountain top snows Sunday and Monday.
At the surface high pressure becomes established to our northeast maintaining easterly trade winds beginning later this weekend and continuing for the foreseeable future (surface animation), this is likely to keep windward showers going through most of next week.
