Makawao weather

Due to the constantly warm water of this part of the ocean, the air is also continuously warm. When people think of the ultimate in comfortable climates, the islands of Hawaii and Makawao are first in their minds. Even though sunny skies and warm ocean breezes are the norm here, Hawaiian weather can vary significantly across very short distance. Because you're never very far from a mountaintop or a beach, the weather in Hawaii can be anything from snow (yes, snow!) on the highest peaks to a blazing sun driven heat! While out on an excursion in Makawao, don't forget the 3 degree (F) increase in temperature for every thousand feet of elevation gained from sea level.

We also have some major moisture in our Makawao rainforests and on the northeast facing sides of the islands we get some of the most intense rainfall anywhere. The southwest (or "leeward") portions of the islands tend to be on the dry side and less windy. With so much all in one place, Makawao's diverse climate helps to create adventures for all. From rainforests and snowy peaks to sunny skies and warm beaches, Hawaiian weather has something for everyone. So have a look at the current Makawao weather conditions and Makawao weather forecast right here on our site - and happy Hawaiian vacation planning!
