THE SOUTHWESTERLY UPPER WIND FLOW EAST OF THE TROUGH WAS CARRYING FRAGMENTS OF CIRRUS CLOUDS NORTHEASTWARD. THESE HIGH CLOUDS WERE MAINLY LOCATED WITHIN A NEARLY 300 MILES WIDE SWATH CENTERED BETWEEN 16N 170W AND 26N 158W. THE THICKEST CIRRUS WAS LOCATED JUST WEST OF KAUAI. ONLY A FEW FAIRLY THIN STRANDS ALONG THE EAST EDGE OF THE SWATH WERE INTERMITTENTLY PASSING OVER THE STATE. IN THE LOWER LEVELS OF THE ATMOSPHERE...LIGHT TO MODERATE TRADE WINDS WERE CARRYING NUMEROUS SMALL CLUSTERS OF BROKEN TO OVERCAST LOW CLOUDS THROUGH THE REGION. THESE LOW CLOUDS WERE COMMON FROM 150W TO 170W...BETWEEN 20N AND 30N. EAST OF 150W...THE LOW CLOUDS WERE EVEN MORE NUMEROUS AND CLOSELY BUNCHED TOGETHER BUT AT THE SAME TIME...THEY WERE MORE STABLE. AT 8 AM...MOSTLY CLOUDY SKIES WERE NOTED AROUND THE EASTERNMOST PARTS OF THE BIG ISLAND...AND ALONG THE WINDWARD SIDES OF MAUI... EAST MOLOKAI AND MOST OF OAHU. KAUAI AND MOST ELSEWHERE ON THE BIG ISLAND HAD MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES. BUT MORE CLOUDS WERE HEADED IN FROM THE EAST TOWARD THE ISLANDS. THE LOW CLOUDS NEAR THE STATE WERE MOVING WEST NEAR 15 MILES AN HOUR. SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ALONG THE ITCZ WERE MAINLY FORMING BETWEEN 07N AND 12N FROM 150W TO THE DATELINE. $$ +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ To unsubscribe from WX-TROPL send e-mail to LISTSERV@LISTSERV.ILLINOIS.EDU with "unsub wx-tropl" in the body of your message.
