Conditions at Tuncurry Breakwall in February

February: More Energy, Same Onshore Hand

February behaves much like January but with a slight upward bump in wave period to 8.9s and average swell height to 5.9ft (1.8m), with the bulk of the energy between 3-6.5ft (1-2m). The swell distribution tilts slightly more to the east and southeast, with E, ESE, SE and SSE all carrying 14-17 percent of the energy, while the optimal NNE-NE-ENE-E window still receives around 40 percent of the total. The wind story is depressingly familiar: NNE and NE dominate at 32.9 percent combined, and ideal offshore winds from SSW-SW-WSW-W are locked at a low 10.8 percent. With the water at a warm 23.5°C and February the wettest month on the table (5.42 mm/day), expect periods of muggy, onshore conditions and sticky air between thunderstorms. There are absolutely clean days-usually behind a southerly buster-but they are rare, so time your sessions around surface pressure and wind forecasts.
