Conditions at Stimpy's in March
March: Transition Begins, Swell Eases
March marks the first sign of the monsoon shift. Average wave height eases to 1.3m (4.3ft) with a 9.5s period, and the swell direction rotates slightly more easterly: ENE dominates at 55.9%, with NE at 40.4%. The 1-1.5m (3.3-4.9ft) class is the most common, along with a healthy 0.5-1m (1.6-3.3ft) component, so the beach still gets punched. Winds remain predominantly onshore from ENE (29.8%), E (20.9%), and NE (19.6%), but speeds begin to lighten and ideal offshore wind remains at 2%. Air temperature is 27.2°C, sea water is 27.9°C, and precipitation drops to 8.3mm/day. Surf quality is a mix of workable but crumbly northeast monsoon leftovers; a few more offshore windows appear than in the deep winter months.
