No southerly energy at the buoys, but there's still warp from the north. Check the Lahaina webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.

18ft 15s from 25 at the N buoy must be one of the highest NNE reading I've ever seen. As a consequence, also today the north shore will be pretty much off limits, with the usual exception of Kahului harbor.
