Conditions at Green Island in February

February: Wet-Season Messiness

February remains locked in the summer pattern, with average height ticking up to 1.7m (5.5ft) and the average period still only 8.4s. Ideal conditions occur just 34 percent of the time - one of the lowest marks of the year. The wave rose is stuffed with E, ESE, SE and SSE swell, and about 52 percent of the energy arrives from the favorable ESE through S window, but the wind is rarely your friend. Southerly and SSW winds make up over 20 percent of the wind distribution, while true offshore N-NW flow is only 17.8 percent. This is also the wettest month in the data with 4.32 mm/day of rain. Water temperature is 22.3°C. Look for early-morning windows before sea breezes and tropical moisture mess things up; occasionally a decaying tropical cyclone adds an extra pulse of E/NE swell, though often at the expense of clean conditions.
