Wednesday 1 26 22 morning call

Hookipa yesterday afternoon. Photo by Jimmie Hepp from this gallery.

4am Surfline significant buoy readings and discussion.
South shore
Barbers is mostly reading NW wrap these days and can't be used to detect small southerly energy. Check the Lahaina and Kihei webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.

North shore
NW101
5.2ft @ 12s from 307° (WNW)

Hanalei

4.9ft @ 13s from 296° (WNW)

Waimea

5ft @ 13s from 309° (WNW)

Hilo
4.7ft @ 9s from 79° (ENE)

Kaneohe Bay
3.6ft @ 9s from 62° (ENE)

WNW energy is still at the buoys declining both in size and period. Home guess for Hookipa is head to head and half. Decent ENE windswell will give eastern exposures some waves too.

Forecast of Pauwela from this PACIOOS page.
