Hawaiian Islands Satellite Interpretation Message

Hawaiian Islands Satellite Interpretation Message
Tue, 09 Nov 2010 06:00:00 -0600

Based on data through 1130 UTC November 09 2010.

Most low cloud ceilings are occurring over windward coastal and windward upslope areas of the Big Island and east Maui this early morning, especially east- and southeast-facing sections. Broken low clouds are also occasionally affecting mauka portions of the other isles. Otherwise skies are clear to partly cloudy over the aloha state. Low cloud motion is from the east to slightly south of east at 20 to 25 mph across the island chain.

Areas of broken low cloudiness exist east of Maui, north clockwise through southeast of the Big Island, and west-northwest of Kauai. Plume clouds are causing occasional low ceilings west of the Big Island. And an innocuous band of broken high clouds approaching from the west is producing ceilings southwest clockwise through north of Kauai. Conditions are clear to scattered elsewhere in the adjacent coastal waters.

A cold front is approximately 625 miles northwest of Kauai and has been heading east at 20 to 25 mph along 30°N over the past seven hours. Showers and isolated thunderstorms have been firing along and ahead of the boundary. Most of the convection is currently located within 75 miles either side of a line from 32°N 163°W to 29°N 165°W to 26°N 169°W.

Though showers and thunderstorms along the intertropical convergence zone remain unorganized, they have intensified since last evening. Most of the activity has been igniting from 05.5°N to 09°N west of 143°W. Cells have been rising to over 50 thousand feet near 08°N 146°W, and from 05.5°N to 08°N between 168°W and 177°W.
