Thursday 7 27 23 morning call

An image from one of my downwind runs yesterday.

6am Surfline significant buoy readings and discussion.

South shore
Barbers

    • 1.7ft
      , 14s, S 185º

Lanai

    • 1.6ft
      , 14s, SSW 200º

Both buoys show some 14s southerly energy. Check the Lahaina webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.


North shore

Mokapu

    • 5.8ft
      , 8s, ENE 70º

Only easterly windswell on the north shore also today. If that direction at Mokapu is correct, Hookipa should be a bit bigger today in the waist to belly high range.

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