Lanai shows decent long period energy from 210. Below are the maps of August 21 and 22 that show the fetch that generated it.

Check the Kihei webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.

Small NW swell is at the upstream buoys (I posted the fetch maps yesterday). Judging from the decline in size as you move down the chain of islands, I don't think Maui will get much (Pauwela would help, of course), or at least not until sunset. Home guess for Hookipa is waist high in the morning, with a possible increase throughout the day.

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