November: Heavy Swell Returns With Consistency
November is all about power. The average swell height jumps to 2.8m (9.2ft) with an 11.0s period, and the approach of winter storm tracks brings both size and energy back into the water. WSW (12.6%) and SW (11.5%) remain the primary swell directions, with SSW at 7.7% and W at 4.3%; the W-NNW sector is still a smaller piece of the pie, but the periods are long enough that any true west-northwest line will be a standout.
Ideal offshore winds from E/ESE/SE/SSE blow 40% of the time, backed by strong ENE flow, so there are plenty of clean, wintry windows. Air temperatures slide to 1.2°C, water drops to 8.1°C, and precipitation is heavy at 8.10mm/day. Surfers who can handle cold, raw, powerful waves will find Sealion Cove seriously good this month.
