Plenty energy of short and medium period at Barbers should provide consistent waves with favorable winds also today, although smaller than yesterday. Check the Kihei webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.

NW energy coming down but still almost 4ft 13s at Pauwela, together with the declining ENE windswell.Home guess for Hookipa is shoulder to head high with occasional bigger sets.

Plenty small period energy from Nolo together with some 13s energy should provide tons of waves today. Check the Kihei webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.

            • 4.2ft
              , 6s, ENE 75º
Surprising amount of NW energy at the buoys (unless the Pauwela reading is a glitch). It comes from the fetch that happened on Sept 24 and 25 below. Together with the still high, but declining ENE windswell, that'll provide proper waves to the north shore. Home guess for Hookipa is head and a half to double.

      • 1.8ft

Almost 2ft 14s of SW energy at Barbers with the addition of almost 3ft 11s probably coming from Nolo. The Kihei webcam is down, this is Ala Moana.

            • 0.6ft
              , 15s, N 355º
The tiny amount of N energy at Pauwela will be completely overshadowed by the pumping windswell from 70 degrees associated with the strong winds of these day. Home guess for Hookipa is around head high with occasional bigger sets. Much bigger on eastern exposures.
