The outer buoys register around a foot 15s of new NW energy coming from the fetch indicated in the maps of Nov 16 and 17 below. Not much to be expected locally (1ft 14s predicted by Surfline at sunset). Meanwhile, the easterly windswell is declining and turning more east. Home guess for Hookipa is around waist to chest high with occasional bigger sets. Bigger on eastern exposures.

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