New NW swell peaked at NW and Hanalei buoys at around 8ft 15s and should be peaking in our waters this morning. Below are the maps of February 9 through 11 that show the fetch that generated it (and a few more adding energy).


This is the Surfline forecast showing a local peak this morning at 6ft 16s.

Home guess for Hookipa based on that is around double overhead in the sets with still plenty overhead windswell in the mix. Finally a not too windy morning.
Sunset contest is on, this is the youtube streaming.

Wind map at noon. The other ones can be found here.
