Sunday 2 19 23 morning call

Hookipa yesterday afternoon.

5am Surfline significant buoy readings and discussion.

South shore
Lanai

  • 1.5ft
    , 13s, S 190º

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

North shore
NW001

  • 7.6ft
    , 10s, E 85º
  • 4ft
    , 14s, NW 320º

Hanalei

  • 5.7ft
    , 10s, E 80º
  • 3ft
    , 15s, WNW 300º

Mokapu

  • 5.8ft
    , 9s, NE 55º

The moderate NW swell picked up in line with the prediction at the leftover upstream buoys while the short period NE declined at Mokapu. The mix of the two should give Hookipa waves in the head to occasionally head and a half range.

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