A series of small/moderate NW fetches happened in the last few days. Below are the maps of April 24 thorugh 26. That should result in a gradual increase of the NW energy in our waters, starting today (Surfline calls for 2.5ft 13s at sunset) and peaking Saturday (4ft 15s). Home guess for Hookipa is around waist to occasionally shoulder high in the morning, building to head high by the end of the day.

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