October: The Clash of Seasons

October is a meteorological tug of war. The NE swell window kicks up to 14.3% NE and 9.7% ENE, but the wind rose shows an ugly battle: NNE (13.5%) vs SSW (13.0%) and SW (11.7%). Ideal surf time drops to 23%. The average period shortens to 8.3s as trade-wind patterns reassert themselves, making the surf more wind-swell ridden. Average heights remain 5-6ft (1.7m). You often need to pick off windows between sea breeze and synoptic shifts - early sessions before the NE kick-up are the go-to. Water temp is a cool 15.5C.
