November: Amihan Returns, Onshore Grind
November marks the re-establishment of the northeast monsoon, and the swell quality takes a hit. Average swell height builds to 1.3m (4.3ft) with a period of 9.9s, bringing plenty of power from the NE (60.7%) and ENE (24.3%). In fact, 38.3% of all swell is in the 1-1.5m (3.3-5ft) range, and another 10.4% is 1.5-2m (5-6.5ft). But the wind starts to swing onshore again: ideal wind drops to 11% of the time. ENE (23.1%), E (17.7%), and NE (13.5%) winds rake the beach, creating bumpy, cross-onshore conditions. Air temp is 28.0°C, water temp dips to 28.9°C, and rainfall climbs to 12.02 mm/day. November is the start of the fair-to-poor season -- if you get a west wind day, you'll score; otherwise, winter frustration begins.
