November: Trade Winds Return
November is the month when the summer pattern locks back in. Ideal wind drops to 20 percent, and the NNE/NE combination surges to 34.1 percent of all observations, with speeds frequently in the 20-30kph range. Offshore flow from the SSW, SW, WSW and W quadrant is reduced to just 16.7 percent. The swell, though, is directional gold: NE (16.8), ENE (11.1) and E (9.2) plus NNE (4.0) mean 41.1 percent comes from the favorable NNE-NE-ENE-E sector. The average height is 5.6ft (1.7m), with a lot of energy in the 3-6ft (1-1.8m) band, but the period has fallen to 8.4s, so the surf is more windswell than groundswell. On top of that, the onshore winds constantly chop it up. Still, when a southerly buster rattles through and flips the wind to SW, the breakwall can turn on with clean, rippable NE swell. Water temp climbs to 20.9°C, air to 20.7°C, and rain returns to 3.95 mm/day.
