Conditions at Caswell Beach in November
November: The Storm Track Turns Up the Heat
November is a serious surf month as the North Atlantic storm track gains intensity. Average swell height reaches 4ft (1.3m) and average period lengthens to 9.2s, giving Caswell more powerful and organised waves than anything since spring. Swell direction is still predominantly WSW/W at about 52%, but the favourable SSE-S-SW sector grows to around 16%, and the stormier pattern brings more consistent swell from multiple angles. Ideal offshore winds occur 14% of the time, often in the cold, showery northerly flow behind vigorous cold fronts. Air temperatures drop to 9.0°C, water cools to 12.7°C, and November is one of the wettest months with 4.02mm/day of precipitation. It is raw, fickle and powerful, a true surfer's month, especially once the wind swings offshore.
