Sunday 1 14 24 morning call

My visual explanation of how a foil works.

7am Surfline significant buoy readings and discussion. South shore

No southerly energy at Barbers. Check the Kihei webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.

North shore

NW101

      • 6.2ft
        , 11s, NE 35º

Waimea

      • 6ft
        , 11s, N 0º
      • 2.9ft
        , 8s, N 355º
      • 1.7ft
        , 5s, N 0º

Pauwela

      • 9ft
        , 11s, N 10º
      • 1.9ft
        , 6s, NNE 15º

The 9ft 11s from the N at Pauwela should be slowly declining all day. Home guess for Hookipa is head and a half to double, very peaky and no wind at all in the morning, with very light onshores later in the day. Harbor looks great.

 Wind map at noon. The other ones can be found here.
