Hookipa yesterday morning.
6am Surfline significant
buoy readings and discussion.
South shoreNo southerly energy at the buoys. Check the
Kihei webcam if interested,
for size, conditions and consistency.
North shore
NW001
Waimea
Pauwela
The NW swell of the last couple of days is down to less than 2ft 13s at Pauwela, but there's a similar size one already on the rise (see NW buoy reading). It comes from the fetch indicated by the red arrow in the maps of Jan 17 through 19 below. The black arrow instead indicates a very similar fetch that made for another moderate pulse that will start overlapping tomorrow. Home guess for
Hookipa is around chest to head high and clean in the morning, slowly building in the late afternoon to possibly overhead at sunset (2.7ft 15s predicted by Surfline at 6pm).
Wind map at noon. The other ones can be found here.
