Conditions at Green Bowls in August
August: Mid-Peak Grind
August continues the theme of powerful swells and hostile wind. Swell averages 2.2m (7ft) at 14.4s, with SSW now the clear majority at 50% and S at 24%. The swell window remains well aligned, and wave heights in the 1.5-2.5m bands cover most of the month. The trade wind machine is still in full force: ESE 52%, SE 37%, and ideal wind a measly 1%. This is the core of the low season for Green Bowls. The ocean is warm enough at 26.2C, air temperatures sit at 25.5C, and you can expect only 0.7mm/day of rain. For the patient surfer, occasional lulls in the onshore flow can produce brief windows, but you will be working hard for every clean one.
