New NW swell is at the buoys. It comes from the fetch that happened in the maps of Feb 4 through 6 below. Home guess for Hookipa is double overhead plus and relatively clean conditions in the early morning, soon to be greatly deteriorated by the onshore flow associated with the front you can see in the satellite picture. That front should bring heavy rains for at least a couple of days, starting this afternoon.

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

Pauwela shows around 5ft 11s of leftover NW and that should be it for the day. Home guess for Hookipa is around head to head and a half with occasionally bigger sets and very clean with light Kona flow.

NW energy came down a bit in size and period and should continue to do so throughout the day, but it's nonetheless still pretty solid at the buoys. Home guess for Hookipa is double overhead plus and clean with no wind. Pipe contest live here.
