Tuesday 1 26 21 morning call

No photos from yesterday, this is is yet another amazing shot from Honolua on Sat Dec 16. Luke Walsh by OneMoreFoto.

5am significant buoy readings and discussion.
South shore
Barbers
2.1ft @ 16s from 217° (SW)

Lanai
2.4ft @ 16s from 210° (SSW)

Nice readings at the buoys from that Tasman Sea swell. The Lahaina webcam seems to be down this morning, but there should definitely be some waves on that side.

North shore
Pauwela
8.1ft @ 10s from 71° (ENE)
4.4ft @ 6s from 72° (ENE)
2.8ft @ 12s from 18° (NNE)

Hilo
11.3ft @ 10s from 71° (ENE)

All about the easterly windswell. 8ft 10s will make for some big waves on the eastern exposures, a little smaller at Hookipa (home guess is head high and blown out), seen the direction.

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).
