Conditions at Troncones in February
February: Steady Long-Period Lines with a Slight Wind Trade-Off
February keeps Troncones in the premium window, though the offshore wind signal weakens slightly. Swell averages 1.2m (4ft) at 13.5s, with a bigger focus on true SW swell (43.6%) and WSW swell (33.3%). The 1-1.5m (3-5ft) range is packed with ridable waves, and there is even a touch more 1.5-2m (5-6.5ft) energy from the SW/WSW - roughly 6.7% of the total - enough to add punch without closing out.
Ideal winds drop to 46% as SW and WSW afternoon sea-breezes become more common (SW winds total 11.9%, WSW 13.9%). Still, the mornings frequently deliver N/NNE offshore breezes, and with water temp easing to 27.6°C and only 0.30 mm/day of rain, you can usually find a clean dawn patrol with 13.5s-period SSW/SW groundswell peeling down the sandbars.
