Conditions at Gibara in July
July: Maximum Trade-Wind Onshore
July is as blocked-out as it gets at Gibara. Swell height ticks up slightly to 1.0m (3.3ft), but the period remains short at 5.8s and ideal wind is just 1%. E swell is freakishly dominant at 93.1%, with 45.3% in the 1-1.5m (3-5ft) range, so there is actually wave energy hitting the beach. The problem is that the wind is E 62.1% and ENE 21.0%, creating a relentless side-onshore and onshore mess. This is the classic summer trade-wind plateau: waves on the forecast, but almost always choppy, bumpy and blown out. Water temperature is 27.8°C and air temps sit at 28.6°C, with precipitation a bit lower at 1.69 mm/day. Only an early morning tropical wave or a very rare west wind can make July work.
