THE LATEST MODEL GUIDANCE PROLONG THE EFFECTS OF THE TROUGH ACROSS THE ISLANDS OVER THE NEXT TWENTY FOUR HOURS MAKING FOR HIGH CHANCES FOR CLOUDINESS AND SHOWERS. MEANWHILE SEAS ARE LIKELY TO CONTINUE DETERIORATING AND SPECIAL ADVISORIES FOR OPEN WATER AND NEAR SHORELINE SURFS ARE IMMINENT. THE ARVERSE AND HAZARDOUS SEA CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK.
