The quiet pattern holds overnight and through the week, with partly cloudy skies, isolated showers, lows near 79 degrees and highs near 87 from Tuesday through Wednesday. Forecasters said the outlook from Wednesday night through Sunday calls for highs in the upper 80s, lows in the upper 70s and a 20 percent chance of showers.
Typhoon Jangmi remains far to the west and poses no threat to the Marianas. Forecasters said its small west swell is combining with a persistent east trade swell to hold seas at 3 to 5 feet through at least Monday night before they diminish further.
