Conditions at San Augustin in February
February: Southern Hemisphere Begins to Stir
February starts to ease away from the winter northeast pattern. Average size holds around 4-5ft (1.4m), but the period stretches to 11.9s and the SSW source becomes the single dominant direction at 32.4%. Including S, SSW, SW and SSE, the favorable window makes up about 62% of the total swell distribution. Most of that energy falls in the 3-5ft (1-1.5m) range, with a smaller but meaningful amount of 5-6.5ft (1.5-2m) SSW/SW swell beginning to show.
Ideal offshore wind sits at 53%, with N, NW and NNW flow common and light. The dry season persists: air averages 27.6°C, water is 26.8°C and rainfall is just 0.06mm/day. February is a month of windows - if a 12s SSW groundswell lines up with a clean offshore morning, the quality can jump out of the winter slump.
