Saturday 2 21 26 morning call

Hookipa yesterday late afternoon.

6am Surfline significant buoy readings and discussion. South shore
Barbers
      • 0.4ft
        , 15s, S 190º
Lanai
      • 1.6ft
        , 10s, SW 225º
      • 0.8ft
        , 15s, SSW 200º
Very small long period southerly energy at the buoys and not much on the cam. Check the Kihei webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.

North shore

Pauwela

            • 8ft
              , 11s, E 85º
            • 4.2ft
              , 6s, ENE 65º
8ft 11s of easterly windswell is still a very high number but being from 85 degrees it will only hit the east facing shores. 4ft 6s from 65 will instead get to the north shore. Home guess for Hookipa is around head high with occasional bigger sets.

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