The only fetch I could find as a source of the 15s energy at the buoys is the angular spreading one that happened on May 23rd (map below). The numbers are good, but the consistency will probably be poor.

Small out of season NW swell will be rising all day. Below are the maps of May 27 through 29 that show the fetch that generated it. Home guess for Hookipa is around waist high in the morning, gradually building to head high or more throughout the day (Surfline calls for 3.6ft 13s at sunset).

Small southerly energy at the buoys. The 22s reading at Barbers indicates the start of a small long period swell coming from the fetch shown in the maps below of May 20 through 22. 2ft 16s predicted by Surfline for tomorrow.
