South Shore Buoy Data for Saturday, 6am

Stacked plots of Lanai, Barber's and SW buoys:
Lanai (blue line) shows a lot of energy coming in, probably 3x what it was 24 hours ago. This only shows swell energy in the southern cone (160-200 degrees) and with periods greater than 12 secs. My guess is it is overhead where it is not blocked by Kaho'olawe. The fact that the SW buoy is also up means it will continue to pump for a couple of days.

Directional power spectrum for Lanai:
Dominate direction is 190 degrees and dominate period is about 17 secs at the Lanai buoy. Wow.

Have fun!
