4am Surfline significant buoy readings and discussion.

South shore
Barbers is mostly reading NW wrap and can't be used to detect small southerly energy. Check the Lahaina and Kihei webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.

4ft @ 9s from 79° (ENE)

Extra large WNW swell continues at the buoys. Home guess for Hookipa is for inconsistent double overhead plus sets. Smaller and more inconsistent down the coast towards kahului.
