Leonardo Fioravanti was one of the pro's that came from Oahu last Saturday to surf Honolua Bay. Looks like it was money well spent. Photo by OneMoreFoto.
South shore
Barbers
0.9ft @ 18s from 215° (SW)
That would be a remarkable size for a SW swell in this time of the year, but I'm afraid it's a glitch of some sort. In fact I didn't find a possible source on the fetch maps of a week ago and, more importantly, the Lahaina webcam doesn't show much. Check it out anyway if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.
North shore
NW101
7.1ft @ 8s from 44° (NE)
6.8ft @ 11s from 2° (N)
Waimea
6.2ft @ 12s from 339° (NNW)
5.7ft @ 9s from 13° (NNE)
Pauwela
6.7ft @ 13s from 334° (NNW)
6.1ft @ 9s from 356° (N)
NNW energy at the buoys with declining 13s period together with shorter period 9s northerly energy. Plenty size leftover on the north shore, home guess for Hookipa is head and a half plus. Good directions for the upper west side, Honolua should have waves.
