Conditions at Agger in October
October: The North Atlantic Roars Back
October marks the true return of winter surf at Agger. Average swell height jumps to 6ft (1.8m), average period to 6.9s, and the North Atlantic's autumn storms begin to stack up in the North Sea. The swell rose shows a healthy mix of WSW, SW, W, WNW and NW energy, with the optimal westerly quadrant totaling around 37% of all observations. Wind remains the usual challenge: onshore WSW-WNW winds are present about 35% of the time, but offshore ENE-SE winds now represent 24.5% of the wind rose, giving more realistic chances of clean offshore peaks. Air temperatures cool to 11.1°C and water sits at 12.9°C, while precipitation rises to 3.59mm/day - the wettest month. For a committed surfer, this is the start of the promised land, and the early-autumn clean windows are some of the best of the year.
