A tidbit from the Honolulu WFO Area Forecast Discussion:
"The forecast for early next week is highly uncertain since a tropical system may be approaching the islands."

The 23/18Z GFS continues to bring a tropical cyclone into the Hawaiian Islands next Tuesday. It would be a rare event for Hawaii to experience a tropical cyclone moving in from the East - normally they come into the Islands from the South or even the Southwest. Still a considerable amount of time to see how this system evolves. Latest satellite loops suggest that the developing center may be forming a little more to the south closer to 11N rather than 12N. At 24/00Z a weak circulation center is noted at 11.2N 117.8W.
