A MOISTURE POOLING FRONT AND LEADING LINES OF SHOWERS ARE WORKING  
OUT THROUGH THE WESTERN ISLANDS FROM THE NORTHWEST. SOUTHERLY FLOW  
IN ADVANCE OF THE SLOWLY WEAKENING FRONT IS ENHANCING WINDS AND  
HAS BROUGHT IN A MORE MOIST AIRMASS TO FUEL SOME SHOWERS/DOWNPOURS  
ACROSS THE STATE AS PROMPTED BY UPPER TROUGH/DEEP LOW PASSAGE NOW  
TO THE NORTH OF THE STATE. EXPECT LINGERING MOISTURE AND SOME  
SHOWERS WILL LINGER INTO LATE WEEK WITH THE STALLING FRONT OVER  
THE EASTERN ISLANDS, WITH DRIER POST-FRONTAL CONDITIONS BACK  
THROUGH THE WESTERN ISLANDS. HIGHLY ENERGETIC AND PROGRESSIVE FLOW  
THEN SETTING UP JUST TO THE NORTH OF THE STATE OFFERS POTENTIAL  
FOR THE FORCING OF A SECOND FRONT AND ANOTHER ENHANCED AXIS OF  
MOISTURE INTO THE STATE THAT COULD FUEL ANOTHER RAIN/CONVECTION  
PUSH AGAIN INTO THE WESTERN TO CENTRAL ISLANDS EARLY-MID NEXT  
WEEK. OVERALL, A FAVORED COMPOSITE OF GUIDANCE STILL SEEMS TO  
OFFER A REASONABLE FORECAST BASIS AND GOOD CYCLE TO CYCLE  
CONTINUITY THROUGH MUCH OF THE UPCOMING WEEK.
