Conditions at Mitikas in November
November: Storm Season Ignites
November is when the Mediterranean storm track really flexes its muscles. The average swell height jumps to 2.3ft (0.7m), period sits at 5.0s, and ideal offshore wind reaches 31 percent. The wave rose is broader and more energetic, with SW (15.0%), S/SSW (11.3% and 6.9%) and NW (13.7%) all contributing; while the S/SW energy is not perfectly aligned with Mitikas, the fetch directions can swing into the W/NW quadrant as a low passes. More importantly, the wind is overwhelmingly from the offshore half of the compass: E (19.5%), ENE (17.2%) and ESE (11.5%) dominate, with onshore W/WNW/NW accounting for only 18 percent combined. Air temperature drops to 15.2°C, water is still a mild 20.2°C, and precipitation ramps up to 4.67mm/day. It is a storm-chaser's month: the charts get busy, the sand shifts, and the clean windows are real.
