Conditions at Taghazout in November
November: The Storm Track Settles In
November delivers a serious step up. Average swell height is 2.0m (6.6ft) and period reaches 12.3s. The North Atlantic storm track is now fully established, with deep lows spinning between Greenland and the Azores sending waves of increasing power and length toward Morocco. The directional distribution is split between NNW (41.3%) and NW (28.5%), with a healthy 6.1% WNW component - the best mix seen since the winter. Even the W and WSW windows are starting to contribute (WSW 0.5%, W 1.2%).
Ideal wind is 61%, the second-best of the year. The weather pattern becomes more dynamic: strong offshore E/ESE flows (E 11.3%, ESE 7.5%, ENE 7.8%, NE 7.0%, NNE 7.9%) alternate with clean NW pulses. The onshore W/SW sector remains under 11%, so major stormy washouts are rare.
Air temperature cools to 19.2°C (max 29.7°C), rainfall rises to 1.18mm/day, and water is still warm at 18.4°C. November is a reliable, high-performance month.
