Wednesday 8 25 21 morning call

No photos from yesterday, maybe I'll post the shots from the trip whenever that happens. Let's start from the Glen Canyon.


5am Surfline significant buoy readings and discussion.

South shore
Barbers

1.7ft @ 15s from 210° (SSW)

1.6ft @ 11s from 180° (S)

Barbers still shows some long and medium period southerly energy. Check the Lahaina webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.




North shore
Pauwela
5.5ft @ 8s from 57° (ENE)

Windswell is on a down trend at the buoy. Home guess for Hookipa is around chest high, bigger on eastern exposures.

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).
