Conditions at Lanuza in February
February: Similar Size, Slightly More Easterly Energy
February keeps the monsoon driving, with an average swell height of 1.2m (3.9ft) and a period of 9.2s. The direction becomes even more easterly than January: ENE dominates with 72.3 percent of all swell energy, while NE drops to 23.6 percent and NNE fades to 1.9 percent. This means more wave action but a less favorable swell angle for Lanuza; the NE component is the saving grace, offering head-high waves when it pulses. The wind story is still troublesome, as N through ENE flow totals around 54 percent of observations, keeping a persistent onshore texture. Only 18 percent of the time does the wind move into the ideal offshore range. Air temps stay warm at 25.4°C, water temp is 27.4°C, and rain drops slightly to 13.34mm/day. Overall, February offers some of the biggest, most consistent swell of the year, but you will need to wait for lighter windows to get truly clean conditions.
