Out of season NW swell picked up at the NW buoy. It comes from the fetch indicated by the black stick in the maps of June 15 through 18 below. It will be more visible locally tonight and tomorrow. The fetch on the 17th with the yellow stick might add some energy starting late Tuesday.

Home guess for Hookipa is waist to chest high of mostly windswell with possible same size more organized NW lines in the second half of the day.

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