Wednesday 1 8 25 morning call

Hookipa yesterday. I missed the windsurfing action, but I got the Cash and Finn show.

My friend Gianfranco took these ones earlier.

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

Yet another XL pulse of NW energy is rising at the buoys. The maps of Jan 5 through 8 below show the fetch that generated it. Home guess for Hookipa is around double to triple overhead getting bigger as the day progresses.

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