Hawaiian Islands Satellite Interpretation Message

Hawaiian Islands Satellite Interpretation Message
Thu, 04 Nov 2010 07:30:00 -0500

Based on data through 1200 UTC November 04 2010.

The ragged remnant of a frontal cloud band has stalled across the state. This northeast to southwest aligned remnant cloud band was just wide enough to cover most of the area from Kauai to the Big Island. The southern edge of this decaying cloud band stretched through 30°N 137°W to 27°N 140°W to near Hilo then to 17°N 170°W. Most of the broken low clouds within the band near the state had tops between 12 and 15 thousand feet.

A large field of numerous patches of broken to scattered low clouds Sat north of the cloud band. A roughly 110 miles wide band of broken to overcast low clouds Sat south of the band, east of the Big Island. This low level convergence cloud band was centered between 17°N 151.5°N and 24°N 146°W. This convergence cloud band was stationary.

Water vapor imagery shows an upper level low hovering near 20°N 180°E. The low appeared to be weakening somewhat. However, it was still managing to generate a few thunderstorms around its center. It was also generating some clusters and strands of broken to overcast cirrus clouds from 12°N to 23°N between 167°W and the dateline.
