February: Loaded Winter Groundswell
February keeps the winter engine running, with average surf just above 3.5ft (1.1m) and periods in the high-energy 12s range. The wind is ideal 51% of the time, though slightly less reliable than January as more west and WSW winds creep into the picture. The direction mix is still excellent: west swell holds at 49%, WSW at 26%, and SW at 9%. These are classic mid-winter groundswells, often originating from intense North Pacific lows. Water temperature drops to 13.9°C, air temps remain cool with average drops to 13.4°C, and precipitation increases to 3.71 mm/day. The longer daylight and occasional offshore NE winds make this a prime winter window for clean, lined-up waves.
