Conditions at White Plains Beach in April
April: Building Summer Swell
April is a true transition. The trade wind machine kicks into overdrive - ENE wind blows 57.7% of the time, with a large chunk at 20-40kph, making wind a real factor. Swell energy is now dominated by ENE (28.2%) and E (22.2%), but there's a healthy 22% composed of ESE/SE/SSE/S - the directions this beach craves. Average size drops to 5ft (1.6m) and period to 11.2s. The ideal wind window is only 16%, but when a morning glass-off aligns with an ESE pulse, the surf is clean and rippable. Water temps start to climb at 24.5°C, air averages 23.5°C, and precipitation drops to 1.39 mm/day, hinting at the summer dry season.
