Conditions at Jelly's Point in January
January: Peak Monsoon Grind
The Northeast Monsoon is at full strength, and the average surf runs around 4ft (1.3m) with a period of 9.4s. The swell rose is dominated by ENE (60%) and NE (35%), which means this north-facing beach is mostly seeing oblique, trade-wind swell rather than true N/NNE or NW groundswell. A solid chunk of the energy sits in the 3-5ft (0.9-1.5m) range, with some 5-6ft (1.5-2m) sets from the NE/NNE quadrant. Winds are overwhelmingly from the northern semicircle - NNE, NE and ENE alone account for nearly 60% of the observations - so surface conditions are frequently bumpy and cross-shore. Only 18% of the time is ideal for surfing here; when a weak front or local sea breeze flips the wind to S/SW, the banks clean up and the same swell becomes much more fun. Water temperature is 27.6°C, air temps range 24-29°C, and rainfall averages 16.9mm/day.
