Conditions at Maria's in July
July: Peak Doldrums
July is the heart of the summer flat spell at Maria's. Average wave height lingers at 3.3ft (1.0m) with the shortest average period of the year, just 6.7 seconds. ENE swell balloons to 67.8% of all wave energy, with E adding 26.5%, and the vast majority of that energy falls in the 2-5ft (0.5-1.5m) range. This is low-quality, short-period trade swell arriving from the wrong side of the compass. The saving grace is wind: ideal offshore flow clocks in 87% of the time, mostly from ENE (37.0%) and E (27.4%), so the surface is often clean even if the waves are weak. Air temperature peaks around 28.3°C and water sits at 28.6°C. Rain at 3.12mm/day is common. Unless a hurricane is brewing, July is a rest month.
