The small NW readings you see at the buoys come from the fetch in the maps of June 11 through 14 below. It's not going to be much at all today, but hopefully will build a bit tomorrow. Home guess for Hookipa is flat to knee high with a possible small increase at sunset.

 Wind map at noon (1 day old prediction). The other ones can be found here.
