Ironic he would die of a heart attack on land and not while surfing and doing endless drops like this.
4am significant buoy readings and discussion.
South shore
Lanai
2.2ft @ 15s from 199° (SSW)
Still decent numbers at the one leftover local south facing buoy (Barbers offline). Check the Lahaina webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency. Head high one at 5.40am pictured below, with already 15 surfers in the water. Lahaina has become almost unsurfable. Nothing in particular to blame (although our wonderful Covid non-lock-down sure contributed), surfing is just fun and more and more people want to do it and will want to do it. Get used to it and enjoy the now, as these will be the good old days soon.
North shore
Pauwela
4.4ft @ 8s from 60° (ENE)
3.1ft @ 6s from 59° (ENE)
0.9ft @ 11s from 9° (N)
Windswell trending up in the next few days (check today's fetch below), today still small waves at Hookipa, bigger on eastern exposures.
Wind map at noon (the other ones can be found at link n.-2 of GP's meteo websites list in the right column).
Fetches map (circles legend: red: direct aim, blue: angular spreading, black: blocked, yellow: apparent direct aim, but out of the great circle ray map, so not 100% sure).
North Pacific (about 4 days travel time from the NW corner of the North Pacific):
South Pacific (about 7 days travel time from east/west of New Zealand):
Morning sky.
