Sunday 12 22 24 morning call

Yesterday I had a board to try and this is a phone picture my friend Dan Taylor took while I was doing that. The set on the reef is so big that you can't tell where the water ends and the clouds start.

No southerly energy at the buoys, the cam shows people out waiting for the sporadic wrap set. Check the Kihei webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.

Massive numbers continue at the buoys. Below are the maps that show the fetches of the last three days. As you can see, it's not even a direct aim, as most of the energy is missing us to our north headed to the US west coast.

Guessing the size at Hookipa from home doesn't even make sense anymore, just huge, specially in the afternoon. The Eddie is on at Waimea, live streaming here.

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