Today' s light to moderate northeast winds will become easterly on Friday, and southeasterly by Sunday, the National Weather Service said.

Winds will remain light enough to allow local land and sea breezes to develop, especially over leeward areas, accordinig to the forecast.

While the light trade winds will bring clouds to windward slopes, and afternoon sea breezes will allow some interior and leeward cloudiness to develop, the atmosphere will continue to be dry and stable, and rainfall will be very limited, forecasters said.

The southeast winds will bring vog from the Big Island over the smaller islands from Sunday into early next week.
