Hookipa yesterday at dusk.

6am Surfline significant buoy readings and discussion. South shore
Barbers
      • 1.2ft
        , 15s, S 190º

      • 0.9ft
        , 13s, SSW 195º

Very small southerly energy at the buoys and not much on the cam. Check the Kihei webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.

North shore

N

            • 4.1ft
              , 9s, N 10º

Hanalei

    • 1.3ft
      , 10s, N 5º

Waimea

            • 1.7ft
              , 10s, N 0º

Pauwela

            • N/A
The N buoy shows 4ft 9s of northerly energy coming from the small fetch that happened in the Gulf of Alaska on the 24th (see map below). Unfortunately Pauwela seems to be down. Home guess for Hookipa is around waist high with occasional bigger sets and a possible small increase towards the end of the day.

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