Very small southerly energy at the buoys and not much on the cam, even though I was able to grab a print screen of a decent set. Check the Kihei webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.

After many days of strong easterly trades, the wind is going to ease up a bit for the rest of the week. As a consequence, the windswell will become gradually smaller. If the direction at Mokapu is correct, Hookipa should be quite flat today.

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