Northerly swell came in bigger than predicted. At 4am Pauwela is still showing a solid 7ft 11s, but the upstream buoys are already on the decline, so expect the size to diminish throughout the day. Home guess for Hookipa is around head and a half to double and no wind in the morning, smaller and light onshore for the rest of the day.
