Tuesday 5 25 morning call

Fun waves yesterday at Hookipa. North shore is far from dead, there's more swells in the near future.



4am Surfline significant buoy readings and discussion.
South shore
Barbers
2.1ft @ 17s from 206° (SSW)

Lanai

1.9ft @ 17s from 199° (SSW)

Nice long period SSW energy at the buoys, but bemember that Tasman Sea swells are inconsistent by nature and this one is no exception. Check the Lahaina or Kihei webcams if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.


North shore
Hanalei
0.9ft @ 14s from 315° (NW)

Pauwela
4.5ft @ 9s from 65° (ENE)

NW energy disappeared at all buoys but Hanalei, today it should be again mostly about the ENE windswell. Home guess for Hookipa is around chest high, with possible bigger ones. No wind until around 9-10am. Extreme low tide at 7.19am.

Forecast and energy spectrum of Pauwela from this PACIOOS page.

Wind map at noon. The other ones can be found here (click on animation of the 10 meter column).
