Conditions at Salina Cruz in November
November: Northern Swell Takes Charge
November sees the balance tip toward the northern hemisphere. NNW swell dominates at 41.8%, with N swell adding 6.4%, and average swell height is back up to 1.8m (6ft). The average period, however, falls to 9.3s, so much of that extra height is punchy, shorter-period windswell rather than long-period groundswell. SSW still accounts for 18.0% and S for 9.9%, offering the potential for better waves when the timing is right. Ideal wind sits at 35%, and the wind plot is overwhelmingly NNW at 45.9% and N at 24.1%. Water temperature is 27.4°C, air averages 25.7°C, and rainfall is drying out at 0.65mm/day. Conditions are hit-or-miss; the bigger NNW swells can be bumpy, but the southern windows are worth waiting for.
