Monday 12 28 20 morning call

Thanks to blog reader Don for the donation.

As usual, I use the last week of the year to ask for donations to show the appreciation for the 2020 season of the MSR blog.

Tanner Hendrickson nailed this beautiful closeout re-entry at a particularly rough and unruly Pavils yesterday. 


Made with old footage, this video of the series "Life of Kai" was posted a couple of days ago.


6am significant buoy readings and discussion.
South shore
Lanai
1.4ft @ 11s from 182° (S)

Minimal southerly energy at Lanai, check the Lahaina webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.



North shore
NW101
3.1ft @ 12s from 318° (NW)

Waimea
3.1ft @ 14s from 331° (NNW)

Mokapu
5.9ft @ 9s from 62° (ENE)

Small NW energy still in the water, but the dominant energy will still be the short period ENE one.
Home guess for Hookipa is challenging, head to overhead, kinda soft and peaky but no wind to start with.

Wind map at noon .The other ones can be found at link n.-2 of GP's meteo websites list in the right column (click on animation of the 10 meter column).
