The weather in Hawaii is expected to remain hot and humid today through Memorial Day weekend, forecasters said.

The slight increase in tradewinds in the light to moderate range is expected to continue through Friday, then die down heading into the weekend, with little to no rain.
Today’s forecast is partly sunny, with temperatures expected to range from 85 to as high as 90 degrees, although combined with the humidity, it may feel more like 91 degrees.

Surf, meanwhile, is expected to remain below advisory levels for all shores, although there will be a steady pulse of small to moderate swells coming from the south and northwest.
