THE TROUGH AXIS IS CONNECTED TO UPPER LOWS NEAR 38N 150W...32N 166W AND 25N 176E. 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 250 MILES WIDE SWATH CENTERED ALONG A LINE FROM 17N 180E TO 18N 167W TO 29N 155W. A FEW SMALL STRANDS ALONG THE EAST EDGE OF THE SWATH WERE INTERMITTENTLY PASSING OVER KAUAI. LIGHT TO MODERATE TRADE WINDS CONTINUED TO SWEEP OCCASIONAL CLUSTERS OF BROKEN LOW CLOUDS THROUGH THE HAWAIIAN ISLANDS AREA. A SMATTERING OF PATCHY SCATTERED LOW CLOUDS WERE ALSO INTERMINGLED BETWEEN THE CLUSTERS. ONE CLUSTER WAS CURRENTLY MOVING ACROSS KAUAI WHILE EXITING OAHU. AND ANOTHER NORTH TO SOUTH ALIGNED CLUSTER WAS JUST ABOUT TO REACH THE BIG ISLAND. THESE LOW CLOUDS NEAR THE ISLANDS WERE MOVING WEST NEAR 20 MILES AN HOUR THIS AFTERNOON. WIDELY SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ALONG THE ITCZ WERE MAINLY WITHIN A 200 MILES WIDE CORRIDOR CENTERED FROM 11N 178W TO 07N 160W TO 11N 154W. A WEAK LOW PRESSURE CIRCULATION WAS NOTED NEAR 10N 155W... OR ABOUT 600 MILES SOUTH OF THE BIG ISLAND. THUNDERSTORMS SURROUNDING THIS LOW LEVEL FEATURE REMAINED UNORGANIZED. IT WAS MOVING WEST NEAR 20 MILES AN HOUR. $$ +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ To unsubscribe from WX-TROPL send e-mail to LISTSERV@LISTSERV.ILLINOIS.EDU with "unsub wx-tropl" in the body of your message.
