New 20s southerly energy at the buoys. Can't really find a possible originating fetch in the maps, that's never a good sign, as it could have been a short lived fetch that happened between the 24h samples. Check the Kihei webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.

Small but rising short period N energy at the buoys. The maps of Mar 24 through 26 below show the fetch that generated it. Home guess for Hookipa is around waist to shoulder high with occasional bigger sets and a rising trend that could reach overhead at sunset (5ft 11s predicted by Surfline).
