Tsunami Surge Video; Maui

For anyone who has ever been to Lahaina, you know exactly where this is.  Good video of a tsunami surge at the harbor entrance.

Tsunami Advisory




By now most of you have heard of the earthquake in Japan and the resulting Tsunami there and the one moving ashore in Hawaii right now. Ours is scheduled to arrive at 8:41 this morning. So of course Chuck and I are here at 15th street waiting to see what's what.

On to the surf report. Can't see too much; socked in with fog. Kenny was out and said it's totally jumbled up. So, I'm going to go out on a limb here and say it's not very good; not a surf day.

Update on our Tsunami watch later this morning.

Have a good one

If You Have a




Kayak or outrigger canoe today is the day to break 'em out. Mostly flat with the occasional waist high sets. Clean surface conditions and clear water will make for an awesome kayaking day. In spite of the lack of waves there are 7 people out. Paddling here and there, trying to chase down those elusive bumps in the water.

Low Tide Lines




Stacked up, waist high, left over windswell lines. Poor to fair shape; best at the reef. Restaurants is closing out. Excellent surface conditions with little to no wind. 7 people out.

New south swell is supposed to arrive this afternoon. We'll see.

Check out this sun photo taken by Alan Freidman yesterday in Florida. Look carefully at the upper right side; yep, that's the space station with the space shuttle attached crossing in front of the sun!


Have a good one
