Moisture levels and instability are expected to remain elevated for the rest of the week as upper level give support and enhancement to low level troughs and tropical waves crossing the islands.
Upper level support resulted in most shower activity just east of island chain today. An expected deepening and shift in upper level low and trough axis, could result in the shower activity shifting to over the island chain tonight into Tuesday. Additionally, a southeasterly flow on Tuesday could add to lower level moisture, with increase activity by afternoon.
A temporary reduction in showers on Wednesday morning is possible, followed by the next tropical wave late Wednesday into Thursday. Rainfall accumulations could trigger overflowing of rivers and streams causing flooding and land slippage. Some models suggest over 3 inches (75mm) possible between Tuesday and Wednesday.
Moderate (20-28km/h) northeasterly breeze could become occasionally fresh (29-38km/h) turning southeasterly by Tuesday, and temporarily gentle (12-19 km/h) by evening.
Moderate (1.5m - 2.5m) seas could become occasionally slight on the west coasts. Patches of slight haze are expected to alternate with shower activity throughout the rest of the week.
