Conditions at Foz do Lizandro in August
August: Summer Same-Same, But Slightly Longer Periods
August is nearly identical to July on paper-average swell 4.6ft (1.4m) and period 8.9s-but the late-summer Atlantic occasionally sends a whisper of groundswell from distant tropical or extratropical storms. The NW quadrant still dominates (NW 35.1%, NNW 50.7%, WNW 10.2%), but with slightly more 1.5-2m readings than July, hinting at the fall to come.
The nortada remains strong with NNW winds at 54.7% and N winds at 15.0%. Ideal wind remains scant at 5%. Don't expect miracles; the best surfs are small, semi-glassy mornings and the odd combo swell. Water is at its warmest, 17.8°C, with air at 20.7°C and negligible rain (0.25mm/day). The beaches are crowded, the surf is small-pick your moments.
