New medium size NW swell is rising at the buoys. The maps of Mar 14 through 16 below show the fetch that generated it. Home guess for Hookipa is around head high with occasionally bigger sets in the morning, building to head and a half to double at sunset (Surfline calling for 3ft 15s).

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