Hookipa yesterday. Photo by Jimmie Hepp from this gallery.
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
NW001
8.7ft @ 15s from 303° (WNW)
Hanalei
9.9ft @ 15s from 314° (NW)
Waimea
8.1ft @ 15s from 306° (WNW)
Pauwela
7.7ft @ 15s from 317° (NW)
4ft @ 9s from 51° (ENE)
WNW swell down to 15s, but still pretty solid at the buoys. Direction turned less west and the consistency at Hookipa increased dramatically in the afternoon. Home guess for Hookipa is for head and a half to double overhead with no much wind in the early hours.
Forecast of Pauwela from this PACIOOS page.
Wind map at noon. The other ones can be found here.
