New small NW energy is rising at the upstream buoys. Below are the maps of December 9 and 10 that show the remote fetch that generated it. Nothing particularly exciting, Surfline calls for 2ft 16s at sunset and 3.3ft 14s tomorrow.

Based on the windswell readings, home guess for Hookipa is for belly to chest high and windy. The Sunset Beach wecam is starting to show some sets, so the NW swell will become more visible as the day goes, possibly head high or more at sunset.

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