New moderate NW energy is rising the buoys. It comes from the fetch that happened on Jan 23 and 24 below. Home guess for Hookipa is around head to head and a half and clean with a building trend throughout the day (Surfline calls for 6ft 13s at sunset, although the NW buoys readings show less than that).

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