New long period NNE energy is at the buoys. Below are the maps of January 30 through February 1st that show the fetch that generated it. Home guess for Hookipa is around double overhead and judging from the N buoy, increasing throughout the day with light onshore in the morning becoming stronger in the afternoon and bringing victory at sea conditions. Seek for sheltered spots.
