Conditions at Juno Pier in March
March: Organized Spring Swell
March is the last true winter month, and it shows in the numbers. Average swell height stays at 4ft (1.2m), while the period improves to 8.2s-the sign of more organized, longer-period groundswell. NE and ENE each account for a massive 19% of the swell, with E at 12% and ESE at 8%, meaning the direction is perfect for Juno. The problem is wind. The ideal SW/WSW/W/WNW offshore sector only occurs 19% of the time, while E/ESE/SE/SSE/S winds combine for over 45%. So March produces plenty of raw energy but often with a wind-blown surface. The late-season cold fronts are the saving grace; in their wake, the western wind clears the ocean and the NE groundswell becomes clean and rippable. Water temp remains pleasant at 24°C (75°F).
