New N swell is at the buoys with a healthy 5ft 9s of leftover NNE energy at Pauwela. Below are the maps of Oct 25 and 26 that show the fetch that generated the N swell.

Home guess for Hookipa is around head high with occasional bigger sets in the morning, gradually building to well overhead throughout the day. Both the reading at the NW buoy and this set on the Sunset webcam suggest fairly big size waves by the end of the day.

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