Long term

By Monday, the ridge will gradually weaken in the area, diminishing winds to 10 to 15 knots by Tuesday. However, a mid- level high pressure anchored over the Samoa Island chain is expected to maintain stable conditions through the new week. Meanwhile, another high pressure system at the surface is forecast to build over New Zealand. This feature will enhance trades once again for the remainder of the forecast period.

Marine

Latest wave heights observed at the PacIOOS buoys are around 5 to 7 feet. Although these heights fall below the advisory threshold of 8 feet, winds up to 20 knots continues the small craft advisory for the territory. Observers reported white caps over open waters, which is an indicator for rough seas. Expect these conditions to remain through the new week as trade winds persist.
