A high pressure area far north of the state will keep breezy trade winds blowing over the islands through next week, the National Weather Service said.

The high is large and strong, so it will be locally windy, according to the Hawaii forecast.

With the trade winds blowing, showers will be focused over the windward slopes with a few showers spreading leeward on the smaller islands.
