Latest satellite imagery show lines of cumulus clouds moving
through the area as moisture associated with a trough to the north
extends towards the Samoa Islands. Expect passing showers and
breezy trade winds through Tuesday night as these clouds move
across the territory following the trade wind flow. A high
pressure system to the south continues to hold trade winds in the
area. However, as it moves farther east by midweek, expect winds
to shift southeast while diminishing to 10 to 15 mph.

A gentle to moderate breeze and scattered showers will persist
through Friday before another high pressure system builds to the
southwest over the weekend. This feature is forecast to return the
breezy pattern for the new week.

Wave heights continue within the 10 to 12 foot range due to trade
winds and a south swell. Expect these conditions to remain through
midweek before gradually diminishing as the swell and winds
subside. Wave heights are expected to fall below advisory by
Thursday and remain at calmer ocean conditions through the
weekend. However, as trade winds return on Monday, expect seas to
become elevated once again.
