February: Midwinter Power with Clean Windows

February is very much winter, but the statistics show a slight increase in clean windows. Average swell height remains around 5ft (1.5m) with a 10.5-second period, and the wave direction distribution is similar to January: WSW and W swells dominate at around 59%. However, the ideal wind percentage rises to 15%, making February one of the more promising months for actually scoring Langland in decent shape. The SW swell contribution stays around 7%, enough to keep the south-facing banks busy when a more southerly fetch develops.

Weather-wise, expect cold, active conditions: air temperatures average 5.7°C, while water drops to 7.9°C, the coldest of the year. Precipitation is a little lower than January at 2.96 mm/day, but Atlantic lows still dominate. The key is to target ridges of high pressure or the north/north-east flow behind frontal systems; those bring the offshore winds that turn solid west-southwest groundswell into clean, powerful waves at Langland.
