Conditions at Laje da Jagua in November
November: The Spring Low
November continues the spring lull with ideal wind at just 17% and an average period of 8.6s. Swell height holds at 1.7m (5.5ft), but the quality is poor because the energy is mostly ENE/E/ESE trade-wind sea - those three directions account for over 50% of the spectrum. S and SSW together are only around 10%, and there is no meaningful SW/WSW groundswell. The wind rose shows NE at 30.7%, ENE at 13.2%, and NNE at 9.4%, confirming that the subtropical high is firmly in control. SSW at 9.7% and SW at 6.3% are the frontal remnants, but they only add onshore chop rather than clean swell. Water temp climbs to 20.6°C and air temperatures warm to 21.6°C. This is one of the quietest months for quality surf at Laje da Jagua - small, windblown and better left to longboarders unless a rare autumn-like front delivers a burst of S/SW swell and offshore wind.
