Hookipa yesterday morning.

The beautiful profile of the 5.0 F1 Strike. Got one in my car to try this morning (and Armstrong 1550 v1 and v2 to compare).

4am Surfline significant buoy readings and discussion.

Small SSW energy at Barbers. Check the Lahaina webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.

New long period N energy is at the upstream buoys, although not quite as big as the forecasts predicted. Most of the last swells had more energy east of us, so it's possible that in Maui it's actually a bit bigger than what the buoys show. Home guess for Hookipa is around head and a half.

Forecast of Pauwela from this PACIOOS page.
