Trade winds to persist into next weekend
HONOLULU (KHON2) – High pressure far northeast of Hawaii will drive breezy trade winds through the next week, with slight variations through the week.

Intermittent clearing of coastal clouds with warm temperatures inland
SAN DIEGO (FOX 5/KUSI) — Get comfortable with a mostly cloudy coast and warmer weather inland as temperatures aren't expected to change much over the next few days. As of Wednesday afternoon, clouds are clearing gradually from east to west, making way for blue skies and sunshine in our inland areas but still mostly cloudy at the immediate coast. Temperatures are going to hold steady for the next few days with a rinse and repeat forecast most days. Heading into the weekend, high pressure builds from the southern U.S. and will warm temperatures up in time for Father's Day. Beaches will get mostly cloudy to partly cloudy afternoons with more sunshine on tap for the end of the weekend. Daytime highs for the coast will range in the upper 60s to low 70s through Friday with upper 70s to low 80s for valleys, mid-80s for the mountains and just shy of 110 degrees for the deserts. By the weekend, the temperature will warm up five to ten degrees warmer than normal for inland communities. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

PHOTOS: Crews battle Rowena Fire in Wasco County near I-84
PORTLAND, Ore. () — Fire crews are responding to the Rowena Fire, a brush fire that sparked Wednesday afternoon near Interstate 84 in Wasco County. The fire at Milepost 78 was first reported around 1:38 p.m., according to authorities. The size of the fire was initially unclear; however, officials have issued and shut down traffic on I-84 between The Dalles and Mosier (Milepost 64-82), according to the Oregon Department of Transportation. The fire also led Oregon Governor Tina Kotek to issue the Emergency Conflagration Act to access more resources to fight the fire. 'This early season conflagration should come as a reminder to Oregonians to be ready for wildfire,' State Fire Marshal Mariana Ruiz-Temple said. 'The predictions for this summer are extremely concerning. I am asking everyone to take that extra minute to be mindful of the conditions and remember it takes a single spark to ignite a disaster.'

‘Familiar territory': Aspen implements water restrictions, anticipates severe drought
DENVER (KDVR) — The city of Aspen is currently experiencing drought conditions, and city officials voted Tuesday to implement stage 1 water restrictions. The restrictions are voluntary for residents, but it is recommended that they try and attain a 10% reduction in water use. However, the 10% water reduction goal is mandatory for government properties. FOX31 Weather: View the latest Denver forecasts, maps and radar Steve Hunter, utilities resource manager for the city of Aspen, said that the city has been 'out of drought for about two years, which has been pretty great, but we're now we're back in a familiar territory.' The U.S. Drought Monitor is listing 82% of Pitkin County as being under severe drought conditions, or D2, with 15% in 'moderate' drought conditions and a small sliver in the western portion of the county listed as extreme. 'Pretty reminiscent of what's happening in southwest U.S. right now, severe drought, extreme drought: the big reservoirs are still empty,' Hunter said. 'All the rivers are down pretty low for this time of year, I mean, you can wade across the Roaring Fork Mid Valley right now, which is pretty unbelievable. Our local reservoirs that we get power from, Ruedi (reservoir) and Ridgeway, are expected to fill, so that's a good thing.' Hunter said that the Roaring Fork River at Glenwood Springs is expected to be at about 60% of average runoff this year, which is significantly lower than last year. Between early April and mid-May, officials said that the snowpack had melted approximately 14% last year. For the same time period this year, the snowpack melted almost 45%. 'So almost half of that snowpack left,' Hunter said. 'We do have snowpack up high still, which has kind of been a saving grace.' Hunter said that a bright spot for the city is that climatologists are predicting a wetter-than-average North American monsoon season. The monsoon season starts in mid-July for Colorado.
