February: Pumping NW Swells with a Trade-Wind Twist
February is a slight step down from January but still deep in prime season. The average swell is 2.6m (8.5ft) with a 12.4s period, and NNW/NW swells still account for 22.8% of the wave energy. The dominant swell directions are actually NNE/NE/ENE, which means the spot is getting a mix of reliable groundswell and more easterly windswell. Ideal wind frequency drops marginally to 25%, with E (26.4%) and ESE (7.1%) providing the clean offshore flow Off-The-Wall needs. When the trades ease and an E/ESE offshore breeze polishes the faces, the long-period NW pulses can produce fast, racy walls. Air temps remain warm at 22.6°C, water at 23.9°C, and precipitation ticks up to 2.26 mm/day. February rewards patience: wait for the persistent ENE flow to back off and the waves will turn on.
