New long period solid southerly swell is rising at the buoys with some 20s readings, while there's still 1.5ft 15s from the previous smaller one. It comes from the fetch in the maps of March 30 through April 1 below and it will keep building all day (3.5ft 18s at sunset predicted by Surfline).

New small/moderate NW swell is rising at the outer buoys. It comes from the fetch in the maps of April 2 through 4 below. Surfline calls for 1.5ft 16s at sunset and 2.7ft 15s tomorrow morning. Home guess for Hookipa is around flat to waist high and no wind in the morning, building to chest to head high by the end of the day.
