North shore
NW101
7.5ft @ 15s from 332° (NNW)

N
7ft @ 16s from 359° (N)

Hanalei
8.6ft @ 17s from 11° (NNE)

Hilo
8.2ft @ 17s from 3° (N)

Kaneohe Bay
6.2ft @ 17s from 1° (N)

Long period N swell picked up strong at all the buoys and should be pumping all day (it was already yesterday at sunset). Not sure if the 332 direction at the NW buoys is a different NNW swell than the N one, if it is, the afternoon will see the overlapping of that too. Either way, the waves on the north shore will be too big for most surfers, with Hookipa in the double overhead plus range and clean conditions. Seek for sheltered places, unless you're a pro.
