February: Better Winds, Slightly More Consistency
February improves on January. The SSW swell share is 96.8%, still overwhelmingly dominant, with 91.4% in the 2-3ft (0.6-1.0m) class and a small bump of 4.5% in the 3-5ft (0.9-1.5m) range. Average period lengthens to 13.3s, adding extra push through the point. The key change is wind: ideal offshore E/ESE/SE/SSE flow rises to 32% of the time, the second-highest monthly share of the year. Rainfall drops to 1.0mm/day and water temp reaches 29.1°C. The WNW/NW onshore quadrant is still present, but winds are very light, so February mornings often glass off and allow the SSW groundswell to wrap cleanly into the bay.
