March: Late-Winter Power With an Eye on Spring
March maintains the winter average with 7ft (2.2m) waves and a 12.8-second period, though the period ticks down slightly as early-spring systems become less organized. The swell rose still belongs to WNW (42.5 percent) and W (21.0 percent), with a bump in WSW to 4.9 percent. The height breakdown keeps most waves in the firing 5-8ft (1.5-2.5m) bracket; the percentage over 2.5m (8ft+) drops a bit from February, meaning slightly more manageable heavy-plus energy. The south-of-west energy remains small but starts to become a more consistent part of the mix as spring approaches.
Wind becomes a touch cleaner and steadier: ideal offshore flow is 64 percent, with NW and WNW dominating the wind rose at 19.7 and 15.5 percent. Rainfall eases to 2.74 mm/day, air temperature averages 11.0°C, and water temperature slowly climbs to 12.3°C. March is the last full month where you can expect proper winter juice on demand, often under longer windows of bluebird NW offshore wind.
