New large long period NW swell is rising at the buoys. It comes from the fetch in the maps of Oct 28 through 31 below. Home guess for Hookipa is well overhead in the very first hours of the morning, building to double overhead plus later in the morning.

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