November: Peak Strike-Miss Potential
November has the highest ideal-wind percentage of the entire year at 47%, making it a prime strike-miss month at Hustadvika. Average swell height sits at 1.9m (6.2ft), and the average period returns to a solid 11.0s. Swell direction is beautifully aligned: W 18.1%, NNW 18.4%, WSW 13.5%, WNW 11.0%, and NW 10.5%. The North Atlantic lows are now stacked up, and long-period W/NW groundswell rolls into the Norwegian Sea with regularity. With the high ideal-wind percentage, there are more chances to catch these swells under offshore E/ESE/SE/SSE winds, often in the wake of a cold front as pressure rebuilds over Scandinavia. Air temperature drops to 5.2°C, water temperature falls to 9.4°C, and precipitation is high at 4.87mm/day. November can produce some of the cleanest, most powerful waves of the season, but the weather windows are often short and intense; when it all clicks, the points and beaches of Hustadvika light up.
