A new small NW swell is at the buoys. Below are the maps of April 22 through 25 that show the fetch that generated it. The north shore will have a mix of that and the easterly windswell. Home guess for Hookipa is around chest to head high with possible bigger sets in the afternoon.

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