Out of season NW swell trickling down at the buoys, while the easterly windswell ramps up. In absence of Pauwela, usually Mokapu gives a good indication of the easterly windswell, but today it's so high there that I felt posting Hilo too. Maui probably somewhere in the middle of the two. Home guess for Hookipa is around waist to chest high.
