Small numbers at Pauwela. The easterly windswell today comes from 100 degrees and as such it shouldn't play much of a role on the north shore. The other energies are very small, but the NW one is predicted to increase throughout the day reaching 4ft 13s at sunset and 8ft 12s tomorrow morning according to Surfline. Home guess for Hookipa is around waist to occasionally chest high in the morning building to head high plus at sunset. The wind maps below call for Kona in the morning and NW winds in the afternoon, but the timing of the switch of the wind due to the passage of a front is always difficult to predict.
