The largest NW swell of the season so far is rising at the outer buoys. It comes from the relatively close by fetch in the maps of Nov 27 through 29 below. Home guess for Hookipa is around waist to chest high with occasional bigger sets in the morning with the new swell only starting to show in the afternoon, possibly building to well overhead by the end of the day (3ft 19s predicted by Surfline at 6pm) . Triple overhead plus all day tomorrow instead.

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