Lanai
      • 1ft
        , 15s, SW 220º
Small SW energy at Lanai. It comes from the fetch that happened on Dec 24 and 25 below. Didn't see any set on the cam though, so probably very inconsistent.

Still plenty NW energy at Pauwela that should turn more north during the day. Home guess for Hookipa is around double overhead with occasional bigger sets.
