Thursday 4 8 21 morning call

Here's some photos from a 20 minutes coffee at the harbor before going to work. Eddie O. literally flying down the line.

4am Surfline significant buoy readings and discussion.
South shore
Barbers

1.1ft @ 13s from 178° (S)
0.2ft @ 20s from 179° (S)

Lanai

1.5ft @ 13s from 185° (S)
0.3ft @ 20s from 177° (S)

Small 13s energy at the buoys. Both show an auspicious sliver of 20s energy. Check the Lahaina or Kihei webcams if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.


North shore
N

5.3ft @ 10s from 28° (NNE)
5ft @ 11s from 30° (NNE)

Pauwela

6ft @ 8s from 20° (NNE)
5.3ft @ 11s from 21° (NNE)

NNE energy continues. Home guess for Hookipa is around head to head and a half. Harbor jetty and eastern exposures should have waves too. Haven't heard any report from Honolua, I still think there's some waves there too.

Energy spectrum of Pauwela from this PACIOOS page.
