New small/medium long period NW swell is rising at the outer buoys. It comes from the fetch that happened on May 23 through 26 in the maps below. Locally it should be noticeable only in the second half of day (Surfline calls for 1.5ft 18s at sunset), meanwhile the ENE windswell will still be the dominant energy. Home guess for Hookipa is around chest to head high, bigger in the late afternoon.

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

Very small NW energy at the buoys, also today the dominant energy will be the NE windswell. Home guess for Hookipa is around chest to head high with occasional bigger sets. Bigger on eastern exposures.

Today Surfline calls for a small NW swell which is either not at the buoys yet or is just too small compared to the high ENE windswell. Home guess for Hookipa is around chest to head high with occasional bigger sets. Bigger on eastern exposures..
