Hookipa late afternoon.

5am Surfline significant buoy readings and discussion.
South shore
Barbers is mostly reading NW wrap and can't be used to detect small southerly energy. Check the Lahaina and Kihei webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.

North shore
NW101

2.9ft @ 14s from 305° (WNW)

2.5ft @ 12s from 338° (NNW)

1.8ft @ 10s from 348° (NNW)

Hanalei

5.2ft @ 13s from 327° (NW)

Waimea
5.1ft @ 13s from 329° (NW)

WNW swell is noticeably down at the NW buoys but still relatively up at Hanalei and Waimea. That means the decline locally will only be felt in the late afternoon and tomorrow. Home guess for Hookipa is head and a half to possibly double and clean conditions in the early hours.
