Conditions at Cloud 9 in February
February: Peak Season With a Wind Hangover
February stays locked in the mid-winter pattern, with average surf around 5ft (1.6m) and a period of 9.4s. The swell rose is extremely one-sided: NE pumps in 49% of all observations and ENE adds another 43%, with the majority of those waves in the 3-5ft (1-1.5m) and 5-6.5ft (1.5-2m) ranges. NNE groundswell makes a smaller but important contribution on the biggest days. Wind quality remains the Achilles heel, with the NE/ENE monsoon generating onshore conditions around 68% of the time while ideal offshore wind sits at a scarce 3%. When the trades wobble or a passing disturbance shifts the flow to the south, the reef lights up with fast, hollow lefts. The water is still warm at 27.6°C, though 12.7mm/day of rain keeps plenty of freshwater pushing through the nearshore.
