Very small southerly energy at Lanai together with some leftover Kona windswell. Check the Kihei webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.

The mix of NW and N energies continues at the buoys, although with more moderate sizes than yesterday. Home guess for Hookipa is around head and a half and clean faces, but with inconsistent breaking pattern due to the two swells in the water. Possibly a day of break after 3 days of Kona and before it starts again tomorrow.
