Conditions at Mona Lisa Point in March

March: The Monsoon Crossover Fade

March is the first true transition month. The NE monsoon begins to weaken, average swell height drops to 1.6ft (0.5m) and periods shorten to 6.4s, so most waves are short-period windswell. NNW still accounts for 84 per cent of the directional spread, but 55 per cent of all readings are in the tiny 0-1.5ft (0-0.5m) class - significantly more groveling than January or February. While N and NNE winds still bring offshore tendencies, the ideal-wind window narrows to 10 per cent, and light S, SSE and SSW flows begin to appear as the land heats up. Air temperature climbs to 27.3°C (81.1°F), water temperature is 26.9°C (80.4°F) and rainfall doubles to 1.12mm/day. Expect smaller, softer conditions with the occasional punchy 2-3ft (0.6-0.9m) NNW set early in the day.
