Conditions at Juno Pier in October
October: The North Atlantic Roars Back
October is when Juno Pier's real surf season kicks into gear. The North Atlantic storm track wakes up, and the average swell height jumps to 4ft (1.2m) with a solid 8.2s average period. The swell rose is loaded with NE (34%) and ENE (34%)-the two best directions for this beach-plus E (8%) and ESE (3%). That is a huge amount of available energy pointing straight at the pier. The catch is wind. October sees NE/ENE/E flow about 46% of the time, and ideal offshore W/SW/WNW flow only around 15% of the time. Many days are full-size but blown out by the same easterly winds that come with the fall storminess. The real gems occur after a cold front sweeps through, switching winds to the west/southwest while the NE/ENE swell floods in. Then Juno delivers clean, punchy waves in the 4-6ft (1.2-1.8m) range. Water temp is 28°C (83°F).
