November: Spring Rebound Begins
November is springtime, and the vibe at the Mount starts to shift back toward summery consistency. The period comes up from October to 7.8s, and the optimal swell share rebounds to 48.2 percent, with NE once again the leading direction at 18.6 percent, ENE at 12.7 percent, and NNE at 12.4 percent filling out the window. WSW is still the wind king at 20.4 percent, W at 15.1 percent, and ideal offshore days register 40 percent. The average height sits at 1.1m (3-4ft), with most waves in the 0.5-1m and 1-1.5m classes, so it is a groveling-to-fun-size month rather than a pumping one. Water temperature creeps to 16.1°C and air averages 15.8°C. The afternoon sea breeze is still active, but the improving swell direction means November is the first real good spring signal for the summer ahead.
