Hookipa yesterday.

6am Surfline significant buoy readings and discussion. South shore
Barbers

      , 18s, S 175º

Lanai

• • • 0.9ft

      , 11s, S 190º

Barbers shows a very small amount of 18s southerly energy. It comes from the one day fetch that happened on the 23rd below. Nothing big to be expected, Surfline calls for 1ft 16s at sunset and 1.6ft 15s tomorrow. The cam doesn't show much, it's probably very inconsistent.

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

The small NW swell I discussed yesterday came up as predicted and today it shows 3ft 13s locally. The 5ft 12s reading at Hanalei suggest a slight increase throughout the day. Home guess for Hookipa is around head high with occasional bigger sets in the morning, possibly a bit bigger in the afternoon.

 Wind map at noon (one day old prediction). The other ones can be found here.
