Sunday 7 2 23 morning call

Kanaha yesterday.

6am Surfline significant buoy readings and discussion.

South shore
Barbers

• • 1.8ft

    , 9s, SSE 165º
  • 2.4ft

    , 6s, SSE 160º
  • 0.5ft

    , 15s, S 180º

Lanai

• • 1.2ft

    , 11s, S 175º
  • 0.6ft

    , 15s, S 180º
  
  

Both buoys show half foot of 15s southerly energy.  Couldn't find a source in the fetch maps and that's never a good sign. Check the Lahaina webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.

North shore

Mokapu

• • 3ft

    , 8s, E 90º
  • 2.1ft

    , 5s, NE 50º
• 
  

Only tiny NE windswell on the north shore also today. Mokapu shows also 3ft 8s but from 90 degrees, so home guess for Hookipa is flat to knee high, bigger on eastern exposures.

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