Mix of 6ft 8s ENE windswell and 3.6ft 13s from the E from Fausto. This last energy is predicted to gradually increase in size by Surfline, reaching 10ft 12s tomorrow. Home guess for Hookipa is around chest to head high with well overhead sets possible in the second half of the day. Bigger on eastern exposures. Note: Fausto is going to kill the trades until late Wednesday.

There have been NE fetches since almost a week or so and we started receiving the related energy yesterday afternoon (see Hookipa picture at the top). Fausto's swell should also start arriving this afternoon but mostly from a 90 degrees direction. The swell will keep building and slightly turn north following the track of the storm, and Surfline predicts a whooping 10ft 13s from 72 degrees on Tuesday. Home guess for Hookipa today is around chest to head high with occasional bigger sets.

Solid numbers at Barbers, the swell should be pumping today (within the intrinsic inconsistency of angular spreading swells). Check the Kihei webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.

Three different periods of ENE windswell all coming from 70 degrees (which barely gets to Hookipa, not so much down the coast). Home guess for Hookipa is around knee to waist high with occasional bigger sets.

      , 14s, S 180º

The SSW swell I discussed yesterday shows 2.5ft 20s while there's still 2ft 14s of the previous swell. Keeping in mind the characteristic inconsistency of an angular spreading swell, today there should be some occasional fairly large sets on the south shore.
