February: Groundswell in a Wind Tunnel
February looks a lot like January on the surface, but the swell gets a bit heavier. Average height remains around 5-6ft (1.7m), while period stretches to 12.5s. The swell is even more locked into SW directions - SW accounts for 50.3% of the distribution, SSW 30.9%, and WSW 12.7% - and the 6-8ft (2-2.5m) category becomes more prominent, especially from the SW. Still, the northwest monsoon is firmly in control. W winds dominate at 36.1%, with WNW at 17.0% and WSW at 9.3%, leaving only 23% ideal wind. Rain is nearly as heavy as January at 8.84mm/day, and the water is a warm 29.2°C. The few brilliant sessions come when a high-pressure ridge pushes an E or ESE wind event through the region - those fleeting windows are worth chasing.
