Saturday 3 9 24 morning call

No photos from yesterday, this is a comparison of the F-One 85cm carbon masts I shot two days ago.

6am Surfline significant buoy readings and discussion. South shore

No southerly energy at Barbers. Check the Kihei webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.

New NW swell rose at the NW buoy and will rise all day locally. Below are the maps of March 5 through 7 that show the fetch that generated it. Home guess for Hookipa is around head and a half building to double plus by the end of the day (6ft 16s predicted by Surfline).

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