Definitely been a lighter than normal October so far, with super light winds on the north shore for about the last two weeks. Kihei has been about the only place with decent wind and even it has been too light to sail on some days.
I finally got back on the water at Kanaha yesterday after a nearly two week hiatus. Marginally powered 5.7 was the call with some small, mellow surf at Uppers. Good to finally be sailing again.
Looks like winds should increase in strength today and tomorrow. The forecasters are even using the word “fresh” in the wind forecast description. After Monday it looks like the weather will get weird for a few days with some wet storminess coming up from the tropics south of us, but then trades should then return late next week again.
As for the surf forecast, surf along north facing shores will remain 3 to 5 feet through Saturday.
