There have been NE fetches since almost a week or so and we started receiving the related energy yesterday afternoon (see Hookipa picture at the top). Fausto's swell should also start arriving this afternoon but mostly from a 90 degrees direction. The swell will keep building and slightly turn north following the track of the storm, and Surfline predicts a whooping 10ft 13s from 72 degrees on Tuesday. Home guess for Hookipa today is around chest to head high with occasional bigger sets.

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