November: Building Toward the Winter Peak
November sees winter arrive in earnest. The average surf height rises to around 6ft (1.8m) and the period jumps to 11.0s, with the W and WSW sectors combining for 45% of all observations and WNW adding 14%. Storms in the North Atlantic are now frequent and powerful, and Polzeath feels every bit of it. The wind is ideal only 22% of the time, and the frequent W and WNW winds associated with the lows can make the beach messy and onshore. But in the clean post-frontal windows with ESE and SE winds, the sets come in with real force. Water temperature cools to 13.0°C, air to 10.6°C, and rainfall increases to 4.26mm/day, a solid, raw autumn month.
