Wednesday 12 6 23 morning call

No photos from yesterday, this picture by Ben Thouard is called The Skull.

6am Surfline significant buoy readings and discussion. South shore

No southerly energy at Barbers, but there should be some (but covered at the buoy by the NW wrap). Below are the maps of November 28 though December 1 that show a decent fetch way down under.

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