Conditions at Grumari in February

February: Late Summer, Subtle Up-Tick

February continues the summer lull but with a slightly better rhythm. Average wave height remains 3ft (0.9m), period edges up to 9.9s, and the swell window is still dominated by SSE (30.6%), S (25.7%), SE (23.4%) and ESE (17.1%). While the 2-3ft (0.5-1m) range is the most common, there is a healthy share of waves in the 3-5ft (1-1.5m) range, mostly from S and SSE, plus small percentages pushing into the 5-6.5ft (1.5-2m) range from S. The wind regime is still dominated by NE-ENE trades, with NNE (11.9%), NE (12.3%), ENE (11.7%) and E (10.8%) all well represented. Still, 47% of the time the wind is ideal for surfing, which makes for more than a few clean dawn patrol sessions. With air temperatures near 25.9°C, 6.36 mm/day of rain and water temperature at 22.7°C, it is warm, tropical and occasionally fun.
