Conditions at Thorli in July
July: The Small-Wave Zenith
July is the smallest, calmest month of the year at Thorli. Average swell height bottoms out at 4-5ft (1.4m), and period averages only 8.2 seconds. The compensation is that ideal offshore wind reaches 41 percent of the time, the highest of any month. SW (8.4%), WSW (7.5%), W (6.5%) and WNW (6.9%) create plenty of groomed, glassy surface. The favorable east-southeast swell window remains present at about 13 percent of the wave rose, with SE (8.8%) and ESE (3.3%) leading. Swell from SW/S/SSW dominates in total, but most of it is under 2m (6ft), so Thorli turns into a groveler's paradise: small, fun-sized and frequently clean. The warmest air temperatures arrive with an average of 11.1°C and water remains mild at 11.3°C, while precipitation stays elevated at 3.34 mm/day. July is the month for loggers, beginners and anyone who prefers a cold-water summer session without the stormy chaos.
