December: Monsoon Return - Westerly Swell with Onshore Chop
December brings the northwest monsoon back, and T-Land's swell window tilts toward the more direct western angles. Average swell is 3.5ft (1.1m) with an 11.9s period, and the directional data shows SW (63.1 percent), WSW (28.5 percent) and W (3.9 percent), plus a little WNW (0.5 percent). That means more true west-northwest energy than at any time since February, with the potential for some 5-8ft (1.5-2.5m) pulses when the monsoon storms fire. The catch is the wind: ideal conditions are just 25 percent, as WSW (18.0 percent), W (17.0 percent) and WNW (11.1 percent) blow onshore across the exposed beach. Rain ramps up to 6.51 mm/day, air temperatures reach 28.9°C and water temperature peaks at 30.1°C. December is all about chasing the brief windows between monsoon squalls.
