Thursday 8 27 21 morning call

No photos from yesterday. Next photo from my trip is the Horseshoe bend of the Colorado river. Hard to photograph without a wide angle lens.

5am Surfline significant buoy readings and discussion.

South shore
Barbers
1.7ft @ 14s from 201° (SSW)

This Tasman sea energy has been painfully slow, so check the Lahaina webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.

North shore
Pauwela
5.2ft @ 8s from 50° (NE)

Windswell getting smaller and smaller, home guess for Hookipa and eastern exposures is around waist to chest high.

Forecast and energy spectrum of Pauwela from this PACIOOS page.
