The new long period southerly energy I discussed yesterday shows 1.5ft 18s at the buoys, but the cams shows great inconsistency. Check the Kihei webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.

Small 13s southerly energy at the buoys plus some tiny very long period readings. The only possible generating fetch I found for the latter is the unimpressive one that happened on June 21 below. Surfline calls for almost 2ft 18s tomorrow morning, I doubt it instead.

ENE windswell shows some pretty high numbers. Home guess for Hookipa is around chest high with occasional bigger sets.

I just posted this video to explain what made me change my opinion about parawing downwinders.
