Hookipa yesterday afternoon.
8am Surfline significant buoy readings and discussion.
South shore
Barbers
- 1.3ft, 13s, S 185º
Lanai
- 1.5ft, 17s, S 190º
- 1.6ft, 13s, S 180º
New long period southerly energy is at Lani. Below are the maps of April 14 through 16 that show the not particularly well oriented but very wide fetch that generated it.
Check the Lahaina webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.
North shore
NW001
- 5.7ft, 14s, NW 315º
Hanalei
- 3.1ft, 17s, WNW 300º
- 2.7ft, 9s, NW 315º
Mokapu
- 3.2ft, 8s, ENE 65º
New long period NW energy is at the buoys. Below are the maps of April 18 though 21 that show the fetch that generated it.
The Sunset beach cam shows good size.
Surfline calls for the swell to rise all day to 3ft 15s at 6pm. Home guess for Hookipa in the morning is around head high and rising.
