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.

Waimea

Yet another NW pulse is showing at the buoys (18s reading at Waimea) while yesterday's one still lingers around (13s reading at Waimea). Home guess for Hookipa is for head high with possible bigger sets and clean and relatively clean wind-wise, but with windswell travelling across. Sunset should have longer period waves.
Eastern exposures will have waves too.
