Conditions at Morro dos Conventos in November
November: Pre-Summer Windswell
November continues the slide into summer windswell. Average height holds at 5ft (1.5m), but period compresses to 8.8s and the directional energy is firmly anchored in the E/ESE/SE sector - E 23.0%, ESE 20.1%, SE 15.1%. Straight S swell fades to 8.0%, and SSW is below 1%. The waves are rideable and often fun on the better tides, but they lack the driving power of the winter months.
Ideal winds remain stuck at 14%, the seasonal low. NE winds dominate at 30.2%, with ENE another 16.7%, and the mix of cross-shore NE breeze plus short-interval windswell keeps the surface lumpy. Still, November is a shoulder month: warm air at 20.9°C, water at 20.1°C, and fall-like rainfall of 3.6mm/day. For a log or a fish, there are fun, grovelly waves - but consistency and quality are the trade-off.
