Tuesday 4 13 21 morning call

Hookipa yesterday morning.

4am Surfline significant buoy readings and discussion.
South shore
Barbers
3.1ft @ 14s from 287° (WNW)

Lanai
2.7ft @ 14s from 227° (SW)

SSW swell down to 14s but still nice size at the buoys. Check the Lahaina or Kihei webcams if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.


North shore
NW001
4.3ft @ 14s from 318° (NW)

Waimea
3.9ft @ 14s from 318° (NW)

Pauwela

4ft @ 14s from 323° (NW)
2.2ft @ 8s from 43° (NE)

Moderate NW swell peaked during the night and today is showing a nice 4ft 14s. Below are the graphs of Pauwela (right) together with yesterday's graph and prediction and the Surfline forecast. Size should remain pretty steady all day with a slow decline trend. Home guess for Hookipa is head and a third to head and a half and clean in the early morning.
