Wednesday 10 21 20 morning call

 Fun size waves at Hookipa and on the eastern exposures yesterday, this is Kai Lenny working on his next video.


What a job, uh? You need to be able to do things like this though...


5am significant buoy readings and discussion.
South shore
Barbers

1.6ft @ 11s from 195° (SSW)
0.9ft @ 16s from 201° (SSW)

Lanai

1.6ft @ 11s from 193° (SSW)
0.9ft @ 16s from 195° (SSW)

Very small energy at the buoys, check the Lahaina webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency. Once in a while there's a 16s wave/set.



North shore
Waimea

2.6ft @ 9s from 15° (NNE)
1.5ft @ 11s from 26° (NNE)

Mokapu
2.8ft @ 10s from 61° (ENE)

Hilo
4.7ft @ 9s from 54° (ENE)

NE energy seems slightly smaller today, but there should still be fun size waves at Hookipa and on the eastern exposures.

Wind map at noon .The other ones can be found at link n.-2 of GP's meteo websites list in the right column (click on animation of the 10 meter column).
