NW energy appears again after a week or so at the buoys. Below are the maps of May 30 through June 3rd that show the fetch that generated it. Obviously, the long period energy we see today comes from the fetch on the first couple of days, I added all the maps including today's, to show the there should be continuous energy for quite a few days. Surfline calls for 5ft 15s at 6pm. In addition to that, the easterly windswell went up to 6.7ft 8s from 70. Home guess for Hookipa is around chest to shoulder high with occasionally bigger sets in the morning, building to head high with overhead sets at sunset.

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