Hookipa yesterday.

5am Surfline significant buoy readings and discussion.

South shore
Barbers

First pulse of this week's southerly energy is winding down, but Lanai already senses the next one (0.6ft 15s) that will slowly build today and tomorrow. Check the Lahaina webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.

Hookipa was overhead yesterday, but mostly thanks to the short period NE energy and very little or not at all because of the NW one I discussed yesterday. Similar conditions today, home guess for Hookipa is around chest to head high, bigger mid day when the trades blow stronger.

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