Wednesday 1 27 21 morning call

Hookipa yesterday. Photo by Jimmie Hepp from this album.

6am significant buoy readings and discussion.
South shore
Barbers
2ft @ 16s from 213° (SW)

Lanai
1.9ft @ 16s from 212° (SW)

Couple of feet 16s still at the buoys, drove to Lahaina yesterday and it looked smaller than that (around waist high with occasional bigger sets), but there's definitely something in the water. The Lahaina webcam is still down. Ala Moana in Oahu seems to have mostly refracted windswell.

North shore
Pauwela
6.5ft @ 9s from 68° (ENE)

Hilo
9ft @ 10s from 76° (ENE)

Easterly windswell down a bit at Pauwela, still very high south of us at Hilo. Home guess for Hookipa is chest to head high and blown out. Next significant NW swell on Friday.

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).
