AS OF BULLETIN TIME...THIS IS ESPECIALLY THE CASE OVER THE BIG ISLAND...EAST MAUI...AND THE KOOLAU RANGE ON OAHU. LOW CEILINGS ARE ALSO PREVALENT IN UPSLOPE AND COASTAL AREAS OF KAU AND KONA ON THE BIG ISLAND. SKIES ARE PREDOMINANTLY CLEAR TO PARTLY CLOUDY ELSEWHERE...IGNORING HIGH CLOUDS MOVING OVER KAUAI FROM THE WEST AND SOUTHWEST. LOW CLOUD MOTION IS FROM THE EAST TO EAST- NORTHEAST AT 20 TO 25 MPH ACROSS THE ALOHA STATE. AN AREA OF BROKEN LOW CLOUDS IS CURRENTLY EAST AND NORTHEAST OF MAUI AND THE BIG ISLAND...AND IS MOVING ALONG ON THE TRADE FLOW. THIN BANDS OF PLUME CLOUDS ARE OCCASIONALLY CAUSING LOW CEILINGS WEST OF THE BIG ISLAND...AND WEST-SOUTHWEST OF LANAI...MOLOKAI...OAHU...AND NIIHAU. CONDITIONS ARE OTHERWISE CLEAR TO SCATTERED IN THE ADJACENT COASTAL WATERS...AGAIN DISCOUNTING HIGH CLOUDINESS. A COLD FRONT FAR WEST OF KAUAI IS JUST CROSSING THE DATE LINE SOUTH OF 30N. AHEAD OF THE BOUNDARY ARE SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS...IN THE AREA FROM 21N TO 31N BETWEEN 174W AND 179W. THIS CONVECTION IS BEING GENERATED BY SURFACE WIND CONVERGENCE IN COMBINATION WITH UPPER LEVEL TROUGHING. THE LATEST SURFACE OBSERVATION FROM MIDWAY ATOLL SHOWS BROKEN LOW CLOUDS...WINDS FROM THE SOUTH BETWEEN 10 AND 15 MPH...AND UNLIMITED VISIBILITY...THOUGH SHOWERS HAD FALLEN THERE EARLIER IN THE DAY. UNORGANIZED CONVECTION IS FIRING ALONG THE INTERTROPICAL CONVERGENCE ZONE FAR SOUTH OF HAWAII. MOST OF THE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE LOCATED FROM 06N TO 11N WEST OF 152W. $$ KINEL +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ To unsubscribe from WX-TROPL send e-mail to LISTSERV@LISTSERV.ILLINOIS.EDU with "unsub wx-tropl" in the body of your message.
