Conditions at Jake's Point in November
November: Summer Lull Approaches
November signals the return of the summer pattern. The average period drops to 10.1s, height remains 6ft (1.8m), but the energy becomes shorter and more wind-driven. Swell direction is heavily SSW (50%) with SW (24%) and S (14%); true westerly energy is scarce, so Jake's Point loses that long, grinding quality.
Winds are also less favorable. Ideal offshore flow is down to 18%, and the wind rose is dominated by S (29%), SSE (20%) and SSW (17%). It's not all bad - SE/E/ESE still combine for around 13% of clean offshore flow, usually in the early mornings. Water temps rise to 21.1°C and air to 22.6°C. The surf becomes more inconsistent and grovelly, but a few fun waves are still on offer when a solid SSW swell lines up with a light ESE morning wind.
