Conditions at Pease Bay in November
November: Cold, Raw and Powerful
November is raw and powerful. The average swell height is 5ft (1.5m), period 6.4s. The N/NE/ENE optimal sectors combine for around 22% of observations, and of these about 15% are in the 3-8ft (1-2.5m) range. The strongest sessions happen when a secondary low pressure centre develops in the North Sea, creating a northeasterly fetch and sending consistent 4-6ft (1.2-1.8m) surf into the bay. WSW and W winds are common, but the offshore S/SSW/SW quadrant still shows up 13% of the time; in between fronts, the bay can turn glassy and pump.
Water temperature drops to 10.3°C, air averages 7.2°C, and precipitation is frequent at 2.61 mm/day. As the NAO index wanders, the most consistent setups come when high pressure over Greenland or Iceland steers the jet stream and lows track toward Norway, giving Pease Bay its best N/NE windows. This is serious wetsuit territory, but the reward is the most powerful surf of the calendar year.
