Conditions at Penarronda in June
June: The Summer Grovel Begins
June marks the true start of Penarronda's low season. The average swell height slips to about 3ft (0.9m), the period compresses to 8.9s, and the surf becomes increasingly secondary to the summer weather pattern. NW and NNW still show strong percentages in the swell rose - 33 and 36 percent respectively - but the wave heights are dominated by the 2-3ft (0.5-1m) class, with only occasional 3-5ft (1-1.5m) pulses.
Ideal offshore winds are down to 20 percent. The Azores High is strengthening, NE and ENE winds dominate the wind rose, and daily sea breezes often kill any morning glass. You need a small-wave board and a patient attitude. Water temperature is a pleasant 17.0°C, air temperatures average 16.7°C, and rain is scarce at 1.54 mm/day. If you find a light south-westerly morning with a small NW swell, it can still be a grovel worth paddling out for, but expectations should be low.
