A couple of NW swells are rising at the outer buoys. Below are the maps of August 16 through 20 that show the fetches that generated them (black arrow for the one from 320-330 and red arrow for the one from 285-295). Home guess for Hookipa is around waist high of easterly windswell in the morning and some possibly bigger NW sets in the late afternoon.

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