Hookipa yesterday morning.

4-5am Surfline significant buoy readings and discussion.
South shore
Barbers

1.3ft @ 16s from 197° (SSW)

1.2ft @ 6s from 152° (SSE)

0.9ft @ 13s from 181° (S)

Small 13 and 16s energy at Barbers. The 16s comes from the Tasman Sea. The maps of Sept 24 and 25 below show the fetch.

Check the Lahaina webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.

North shore
N

2.4ft @ 13s from 5° (N)

1.3ft @ 11s from 27° (NNE)

Hanalei
1.3ft @ 13s from 343° (NNW)

Waimea
1.1ft @ 14s from 343° (NNW)
2.1ft @ 9s from 12° (NNE)

Kaneohe Bay
3.5ft @ 8s from 57° (ENE)

Short period NNE is declining at the buoys, while a very small 13s NW energy appears. Below are the maps of Sept 26 and 27 that show the small/weak fetch in the NW corner that generated it.

Nothing to be particularly excited about, home guess for Hookipa is again for around chest high, probably a bit smaller than yesterday that ended up having fun head high waves.

Forecast of Pauwela from this PACIOOS page.
