Hawaii Weather: 02-21-2026

Good morning! I'm Aaron Jolly, and welcome to the Hawaii Weather Podcast. It's Saturday, February 17th. Folks, your islands are having two completely different mornings right now. Oahu's trade winds are pushing steady out of the east at 5 to 13 miles an hour. That means 70 degrees with a breeze that feels like nature's fan. Rain? About a coin flip. Most spots stay dry, but keep a light layer handy just in case. Tonight those winds ease off and things stay mild. Now hop over to the Big Island. Here's the deal. It's sitting at 65 degrees with light southwest winds. Less trade wind cooling means more warmth on your skin. Sun and clouds trading places all day. Rain chances are about half, but nothing that'll wreck your plans. Maui's matching that 65 degrees with brisker winds near 9 miles an hour. And here's the thing. Maui's the driest island today. Only a slight chance of showers. Perfect weather for getting outside if you ask me. Here's your heads up for the week ahead. Trade winds weaken through Monday, letting highs creep up a degree or two. Enjoy that. By midweek, moisture sneaks back in bringing scattered showers. Nothing dramatic. Just February reminding you it still exists. Air quality sits at moderate today, so sensitive groups, you'll want to take it easy outdoors. And one more beautiful detail. We're gaining nearly 3 minutes of daylight every single day now. Sunrise at 6:32 A.M., sunset at 5:20 P.M. That's a whole lot of island to enjoy. So. If this forecast helped you plan your Saturday, share it with a friend. Word of mouth keeps this little podcast growing. Stay safe out there. That's your forecast — we'll be back tomorrow.
