Lanai shows a decent mix of periods and directions. Check the Kihei webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.

NW energy pretty much gone, now it's back to the easterly windswell which should be trending up for the rest of the week as a result of strengthening trades. Home guess for Hookipa is around waist high.

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