    HONOLULU (Island News) -- Right now, it’s cloudy across the islands with some light rain, mostly on the windward (east) and mountain areas. A few showers are reaching the leeward (west) sides, but they’re light. This pattern of overnight and early morning rain will likely continue for the next few days. There’s a low-pressure system off the U.S. West Coast and a high-pressure system north of Hawaiʻi. These are helping to keep our trade winds blowing through at least Thursday.
