Conditions at Right Point in September

September: The Autumn Switch

September is where the season starts turning. Average swell climbs back to 3.9ft (1.2m) and periods lengthen to 8.5s, restoring much of the point's punch. S (19.0%) and SSW (18.6%) still lead the swell rose, but the E/ESE/SE window broadens to 24.9% (26.8% including ENE), and the storm track of the North Atlantic begins to produce more organised swells. Late-season tropical storms, decaying hurricanes and early autumn lows can all send E/SE energy into the Canadian coastline, and those are the days that make Right Point feel alive again.

Wind is still transitioning: SW (13.8%) and SSW (10.8%) are common, but offshore WSW-W-WNW-NW totals 33.5%, and onshore E/ESE/SE winds fall to 11.5%. Air temperature averages 16.3°C, water temperature is a pleasant 15.5°C, and precipitation is 3.18mm/day. With warm water, increasing swell frequency and improving wind, September is one of the best month-for-month trades of surf quality and comfort in the whole year.
