Conditions at Jailbreaks in June

June: West-Swell Winter of Discontent

June continues the southwest monsoon with average heights edging up to 1.2m (4ft) and the period reaching 8.2s. The directional distribution is almost entirely west and southwest - WSW 32.0%, W 21.1%, SW 22.5%, SSW 12.8% - leaving almost no SE/SSE energy. Winds are strong and offshore from W and WSW (63% combined), but the swell simply does not light up the SE-facing reef. The wave quality drops to its poorest of the year; any surf that arrives is short-period and lumpy from the west, with lots of shadowing. Rain totals 5.17 mm/day, air temp 28.1°C, water temp 29.3°C. It's a month to look for shelter elsewhere, as Jailbreaks hunkers down.
