Long lasting short period NNE energy has dimished but is still offering around 4ft 10s this morning. Meanwhile the long period NW swell we discussed yesterday is rising at the upstream buoys. Home guess for Hookipa is around head to head and a half high with a slow but steady rise throughout the day (probably double overhead plus by sunset). The lack of wind should make for excellent conditions.
