Conditions at Pease Bay in July
July: Deepest Summer Lull
July is the flattest month of the year at Pease Bay. Average swell height is only 2ft (0.7m), with average period 5.0s, making most waves weak and crumbly. Despite a high percentage of NNE swell direction at 17.7%, the swell heights are concentrated below 1m, and the optimal N to ENE quadrant contributes just over 8% in the rideable 1m-plus bracket. The Atlantic storm tracks are pushed well north of Scotland, and the Azores High dominates the weather.
Winds are often moderate W/SW, with W at 15.8% and WSW at 14.0%, but they are frequently too strong or cross-shore to make the most of the tiny waves. Offshore S/SW wind windows occur 15% of the time, mostly early in the morning. At SST 14.7°C and average air 14.4°C, a full wetsuit is still needed, but conditions are pleasant. Save the longboard and expectations for the sunrise glass-off.
