Sunday 1 24 21 morning call

No photos from yesterday, this is an old photo from an Indo trip (seems like ages ago) with post processing by Jason Hall.

4am significant buoy readings and discussion.
South shore
No southerly energy at the buoys, check the Lahaina webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency (knee high and clean at the moment).

North shore
NW101
7ft @ 15s from 314° (NW)

Pauwela

7.1ft @ 9s from 55° (ENE)

6.8ft @ 16s from 327° (NW)

Below is Pauwela's graph showing that the large NW swell peaked  yesterday (light blue line), but it should stay at around 6-7ft 15-16s all day with a slow decline trend. No decline in the easterly windswell instead (dark blue line), which, together with the wind, made the conditions on the north shore poor everywhere yesterday. Today the wind should still be strong, but starting from an ESE direction, so early morning could be allright before it slowly fills in in the late morning.
Home guess for Hookipa is head and a half to double.

Old school weather map shows the strong high pressure to our NNE and the bunch of isobars running across the island indicating the strong ESE trades.

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).
