Barbers
      • 1.5ft
        , 15s, S 175º
      • 1.5ft
        , 13s, SSW 200º

Lanai

        , 15s, SSW 195º

      • 0.8ft
        , 12s, SSW 210º

Small but 15s southerly energy at the buoys. Check the Kihei webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.

North shore

Waimea

            • 1.6ft
              , 8s, NNE 20º

Pauwela

            • 3.1ft
              , 8s, E 80º
            • 2.8ft
              , 4s, E 85º
Waimea still shows tiny 8s northerly energy, while Pauwela only has the usual easterly windswell. Home guess for Hookipa is flat to knee high..

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