The 2.3ft 17s at Barbers are even in the forecast, but I can't find a fetch for it. Not much on the cam, probably very inconsistent. Check the Kihei webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.

Pauwela is down and Waimea only shows small NW leftover energy. Home guess for Hookipa is around chest to shoulder high with a possible increase at sunset.
