June: Small Atlantic Pulses and Summer Sea Breezes
June marks the true beginning of the summer lull at Doughmore. Average swell drops to 1.1m (3-4ft) and period shortens to 9.1s, with most energy arriving as short-period W (35%) and WSW (21%) swell. While the direction remains workable, the size and period dip into grovel territory. Still, a solid portion of 3-4ft (1-1.5m) waves holds up on the better sandbars.
Ideal wind drops back to 20%, and the wind rose shows increasing NW-WNW-NNW flow at 32% combined, much of it angled onshore. Sea breezes also become a factor on sunny days, chopping up the afternoon surface. Water temperature reaches 14.2°C, air temps 13.6°C, and precipitation stays moderate at 3mm/day. Dawn patrol is the move - catch the early offshore/light wind window before the westerly breeze builds.
