Conditions at Magheroarty in June
June: Small but Punchy
June sees Magheroarty settle into summer mode. The average swell height is 5.2ft (1.6m) with a period of 9.1s, meaning the Atlantic has shifted down a gear. Directionally, the swell is still very westerly - W 22.5%, WNW 18.2%, NNW 11.5%, NW 10.7% - but the size classes show a distinct concentration in the 1-1.5m range, with only a small percentage reaching over 2m. It is small, fun-sized and clean when the wind allows, but not the heavy, pumping machine of winter.
The wind picture is a mixed bag: ideal offshore conditions remain around 16%, but the bad N/NW/NNW sector also becomes more prominent, especially in the lighter speed ranges. Afternoon seabreezes and the north coast's summer wind regime can put a crumble on the surface. Air temperatures warm to an average of 12.5°C (max 25.6°C), water temp climbs to 13.4°C, and precipitation is 3.25mm/day. June sessions are about making the most of small, clean NW swell with a bit of rubber.
