Conditions at Jelly's Point in August

August: Waiting for the Switch

August looks a lot like July at first glance, with average height still 1.6ft (0.5m) and period creeping up to 9.6s. The swell directions remain E (35%), ENE (24%) and ESE (13%), and most surf is 2-3ft (0.5-1m) or less. The wind pattern is similarly southerly - S (19%), SSE (14%) and SSW (13%) - giving many clean, sunny mornings. The slight increase in period and a small lift in NNE/NE energy are hints that the autumn engine is waking up. But for the average surfer, August is still a low-surf month; have a high-volume board and low expectations unless a typhoon or developing tropical system steers NW swell into the Philippines. Water temperature is 29.2°C and precipitation averages 5.8mm/day.
