Conditions at La Santa Isquierda in September
September: The Autumn Pulse Begins to Stir
September is a transitional month. Average wave height remains small at 1.2m (4ft), but the period ticks back up to 9.5s, a sign that groundswell is starting to reappear. Swell directions are still north-heavy, with N at 30.5%, NNE at 31.9% and NNW at 31.1%, and around 68% of the total arrives from the good N/NW quadrant. The problem is still wind: NNE dominates at 49.7%, with N at 15.1% and NE at 12.0%, keeping ideal offshore windows at just 5%. Early autumn tropical systems or unstable Azores lows can send longer-period NW swell, and warm water at 22.7°C keeps the air warm at 22.9°C. It is a month of possibilities, but the trade winds still have the upper hand for most of September.
