Hookipa in the morning.
Hookipa late afternoon.
I had three surf sessions. This is from the evening one.
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.
North shore
NW101
2.8ft @ 17s from 317° (NW)
Hanalei
3.7ft @ 9s from 49° (NE)
2.7ft @ 11s from 322° (NW)
1.1ft @ 4s from 338° (NNW)
0.7ft @ 18s from 338° (NNW)
Waimea
2.8ft @ 10s from 334° (NNW)
2.3ft @ 11s from 328° (NW)
0.3ft @ 20s from 324° (NW)
Pauwela
3.8ft @ 9s from 33° (NE)
2.8ft @ 11s from 327° (NW)
Mix of small realatively short period NW and NE energies at Pauwela should keep flatness at bay for north shore, but it will be a relatively small day. Waves will be coming up again tomorrow, thanks to a long period distantly generated NW swell that is showing small readings in the 17-20s range at the upstream buoys. Below are the maps of Feb 27 through Mar 2 that show the fetch that generated it. Surfline calls for 2.5ft 16s at 6pm tonight and 6.7ft 14s tomorrow mid day.
Home guess for Hookipa this morning is around chest to head high, peaky and clean. Sunset should see inconsistent long period sets from the new swell.
