Hookipa yesterday. Photo by Jimmie Hepp from this album.
4am significant buoy readings and discussion.
South shore
No southerly energy at the buoys.
North shore
NW101
4.8ft @ 13s from 351° (N)
Pauwela
6.4ft @ 8s from 67° (ENE)
4.1ft @ 14s from 338° (NNW)
3.4ft @ 6s from 68° (ENE)
2.6ft @ 12s from 354° (N)
Below is Pauwela's graph that shows that the NW swell peaked yesterday and today it will be on the decline. Easterly windswell came down a notch too, but it's still pretty strong. There's also a bit of N 12s energy and the mix of all of the above (plus the wind) will make for not particularly clean conditions and irregular breaking patterns. Home guess for Hookipa is around head and a half.
