Conditions at Humewood Pier in June
June: Winter's Raw Power, Rough Edges
June throws a heavy punch: average swell height is 2.3m and the period hits 12.4s. The swell distribution is now dominated by SW at 26.2% and SSW at 21.9%, with S at 8.5%. There is also a tiny NE wave signal (0.1%) that occasionally paints the spot from the true optimum window. Most waves range from 1.5-2.5m, but there's a noticeable jump in the 2.5m+ category from the SW. This is serious winter juice: long, potent groundswell that lines up with the pier.
Unfortunately, ideal wind plummets to 18% - the lowest of the year. WSW and W both clock in at 15.8%, but NW and NNW combine for over 21%, creating windblown, lumpy conditions more frequently than clean ones. The weather is cool and stormy, with air temps at 16.4°C and water at 18.2°C. Expect plenty of onshore texture; only the most patient surfers will find the scattered clean windows between the fronts.
