Very small leftover NW energy from the previous moderate swell is at Pauwela while a new much larger long period one will be rising all day. It comes from the fetch that happened on Jan 7 through 10 below. Note that the map of the 9th is missing, as I failed to grab the screenshot yesterday. Home guess for Hookipa is around waist to shoulder high and clean with no wind in the morning with the new swell rapidly building mid day to double overhead and more. Surfline calls for 8ft 15s at sunset.

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