Conditions at Apollonas in February
February: Still Chasing the Storm Train
February looks nearly identical to January, with an average height of 1.3m (4.3ft) and an average period of 5.5s. The dominant swell remains NNW at 19.0%, with the true N/NE window at 22.9%; SW and WSW also produce 12.6% and 10.9%, but those southwest swells are shadowed by the northeast exposure and won't do much unless they wrap. The wind is split once again: offshore S-SW flow totals 28.8%, onshore N-NE totals 25.7%, and only 5% of the time are conditions ideal. Frontal low pressure over the Aegean often drags a N or NE wind behind it, so the clean windows are short. Still, if you can find a SW-wind day with N/NNW swell, Apollonas can deliver some of its best shape of winter. Air temperatures average 12.9°C (min 3.4°C, max 18.8°C), precipitation is 2.59mm/day, and the water temperature drops to 15.6°C for the coldest water of the year.
