Conditions at Juno Pier in December
December: Winter Sets the Table
December keeps the winter momentum rolling. Average swell height sits at 4ft (1.2m), period at 8.0s, and ideal wind improves slightly to 18%. The swell directions remain favorable, with NE at 21%, ENE at 19.5%, E at 13%, NNE at 14% and ESE at 6%. The wind rose is a bit more mixed than November; NNW (11%) and NW (7%) are significant, while E/ESE/SE flow is still present. These post-frontal north-northwest winds are not in the preferred offshore sector, but they often bring cleaner, less onshore conditions than the prevailing easterlies. The key remains timing the passage of cold fronts. When the wind clocks to WSW/WNW after a front, expect 4-6ft (1.2-1.8m) of NE/ENE groundswell and some of the best winter surf of the year at Juno Pier. Water temp is 25°C (77°F).
