Conditions at Noosa Heads in February
February: The Late-Summer Pulse
February bumps the averages up nicely: mean swell height reaches around 5-6ft (1.5-1.8m), period improves to 8.6s, and ideal wind increases to 47%. E and ESE swells remain the backbone, together producing 64% of the wave energy, with a healthy SE component. Winds are still mostly in the SE/SSE/ESE sector, but the S/SSW/SW/WSW offshore quadrant now approaches 10%, enough to give some early sessions real shape. The water is at its warmest at 26.6°C, and air temperatures stay around 25°C. Rain is more pronounced at 7.6mm/day, so check radar and let a passing trough push through - the post-frontal E/SE swell can be punchy and good.
