Hookipa yesterday morning.


6am Surfline significant buoy readings and discussion. South shore
Barbers
      • 1.3ft
        , 15s, SW 230º
Lanai
      • 3.1ft
        , 14s, S 185º
Lanai shows a whopping 3ft 14s of southerly energy that comes from the fetches that happened in the maps below of Feb 28 through March 4.

Check the Kihei webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.

NW001

            • 1.9ft
              , 15s, WSW 240º

Hanalei

    • 1.4ft
      , 15s, W 275º

Pauwela

            • 4.7ft
              , 10s, ENE 65º
            • 0.9ft
              , 17s, NW 320º
            • 2.4ft
              , 6s, ENE 65º
The small NW swell I discussed yesterday turned west at the outer buoys while Pauwela shows 0.9ft 17s from 320. The easterly windswell will remain the dominant energy in the local waters. Home guess for Hookipa is around waist high with occasional bigger sets. Bigger on eastern exposures.

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