November: Monsoon Flip-Flop

November is a split personality month. The average height climbs to 3.3ft (1.0m) and the period to 10.3 seconds, so the ocean is beginning to wake up. NNE swell dominates at 50 percent, NE at 31 percent, N at 7 percent, and NNW at 7 percent. A good portion of the energy falls in the 3-5ft (1-1.5m) range, with some 5ft (1.5m) sets from NNE and NW. The catch is the wind. As the monsoon trough starts to build, WSW jumps to 11 percent, W to 10 percent, and WNW to 7 percent, while the ideal wind percentage drops to 46 percent. You get a mix of clean trade wind mornings and increasingly messy westerly afternoons. Rain is 6.10mm/day, air temp is 28.4°C, and water temp reaches 30.1°C, the warmest of the year.
