Hawaiian Islands Satellite Interpretation Message
Tue, 23 Nov 2010 12:30:00 -0600
Based on data through 1800 UTC November 23 2010.
Water vapor imagery shows the central Pacific dominated by an upper level ridge. The ridge axis extends west southwest to east northeast across the main Hawaiian islands, with the effects of the ridge covering the area from 30°N to 10°N between 145°W and 175°W. An upper level jet is crossing the dateline near Midway atoll and point west ahead of a deep upper level trough farther to the west.
A deck of layered clouds covers the northwest corner of the area north and west of a line from 30°N 170°W to 25°N 180°. Isolated embedded thunderstorms are located within this area stretching within 30 miles of a line from 30°N 177°W to 28°N 180° crossing Midway atoll. The highest cloud tops are near 48000 feet with these storms.
Over the main Hawaiian islands, skies are mainly clear over the land masses with a few to scattered low clouds with tops near 7000 feet over the adjacent coastal waters. The clouds are moving to the west at about 15 mph over the coastal waters.
