The buoys show some short period windswell from the southern hemisphere trades together with almost a foot of 18s energy. Below are the maps of Sept 7 through 9 that show the fetch that generated the latter (which will be a lot less consistent that the former in the water).

Check the Kihei webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.
