New NW swell is rising at the upstream buoys. Below are the maps of October 29 through 31 that show the fetch that generated it. Surfline calls for 3ft 13s tonight at sunset and 5ft 12s tomorrow morning. Home guess for Hookipa this morning is waist high and clean, building in the afternoon to head high with possible overhead sets at sunset.

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