The old southerly swell went down to 13s while a new long period one shows 1ft 18s at the buoys. Below are the maps of June 1 through 5 that show the fetch(es) that generated it. It should be another long lasting one.

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

The closely generated NW energy that blessed our north shore yesterday turned straight north and should provide for more fun size waves. Home guess for Hookipa is around chest to head high with occasionally bigger sets mid day when the windswell adds on top.
