The NW buoys show a new small NW swell that will only start arriving in the late afternoon (0.7ft 16s predicted by Surfline at sunset). It comes from the fetch indicated by the black arrows in the maps of Feb 25 through 28 below. The red arrows indicates the fetch that generated the short period NE windswell that has been in the water in the past few days and that today clocks in at 3.8ft 9s at Pauwela. Home guess for Hookipa is around waist to chest high with occasional bigger sets.

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