Monday 6 15 26 morning call

The highlights of a surf contest at Ala Moana yesterday give us an idea of the size of the south swell.

6am Surfline significant buoy readings and discussion. South shore
Barbers
      • 4.3ft
        , 17s, S 190º
Lanai
      • 4.7ft
        , 17s, S 190º
South swell continues with impressive readings at the buoys. Check the Kihei webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.

North shore

NW001

            • 0.8ft
              , 13s, WSW 245º

Hanalei

    • 0.7ft
      , 18s, WNW 300

Waimea

            • 0.8ft
              , 17s, WSW 250º

Pauwela

            • 2.5ft
              , 7s, NE 40º
            • 2.9ft

            • 0.4ft
              , 17s, W 275º
Just like yesterday, those tiny WNW readings are too small and too west to do anything here, the tiny NE windswell at Pauwela could make for knee to waist high waves at Hookipa.

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