Hawaiian Islands Satellite Interpretation Message

Hawaiian Islands Satellite Interpretation Message
Tue, 07 Dec 2010 18:00:00 -0600

Based on data through 2330 UTC December 07 2010.

Skies are mostly sunny across the aloha state and adjacent coastal waters this early afternoon. Only small areas of broken low cloudiness exist over mauka and central portions of Oahu, central Lanai, and lower upslope sections of windward east Maui and the Big Island. Low cloud movement is near 10 mph statewide, from the east just east of the Big Island and veering to the south-southwest moving up the chain to Kauai.

A front is nearly stationary approximately 400 miles north of Kauai. Most of the broken to overcast low clouds associated with the boundary are currently north of a line from 30°N 136°W to 26°N 147°W to 28°N 156°W to 30°N 160°W, and showers and isolated thunderstorms are evident north of 26.5°N between 159°W and 161.5°W.

Another front has been organizing west of the islands where a wind-convergent band of showers and thunderstorms has been active. Convection with this boundary is just west of a line 30°N 165°W to 26°N 163°W to 20°N 173°W. The front has begun to move to the east and southeast near 10 mph.

Only limited convection is occurring along the intertropical convergence zone far south of Hawaii. Most of the activity is firing from 08°N to 10°N between 134°W and 143°W, from 07°N to 09°N between 147°W and 158°W, and from 06.5°N to 10°N between 172°W and 179°W.
