North shore

NW001

      • 2ft
        , 16s, NW 310º

Waimea

      • 4.4ft
        , 7s, NE 40º
      • 1.2ft
        , 13s, NW 305º
      • 1.3ft
        , 11s, NNW 335º

Pauwela

      • 7.8ft
        , 7s, ENE 60º
      • 1ft
        , 13s, NNW 330º
      • 1ft
        , 11s, NNW 335º

Just like yesterday: NW energy is negligible while the ENE windswell continues pretty solid at Pauwela. The only difference is that one of the NW buoys shows signs of a new long period NW swell. We'll look at the fetch tomorrow, as there shouldn't be much of that in our waters today (Surfline indicates 1.3ft 16s at sunset). Home guess for Hookipa is around head to occasionally head and a half and stormy.

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