Conditions at Lennox Head in November

November: Summer Approaches and the Wind Turns Onshore

November marks the start of the low season for surf quality at Lennox, though not for surf quantity. Average swell is 1.5m (5ft) but average period drops to 8.2s-the weakest of the year-and ideal wind falls to 32%. The swell distribution is actually favorable: ENE (12.1%), E (14.0%), ESE (16.5%), NE (10.5%) and SE (16.7%) mean plenty of east-northeast energy. However, the wind regime switches back to summer: NNE (13.0%), N (8.2%), NE (8.5%), SE (7.4%) and SSE (9.3%). Those are the winds that chop up the east swell and put a crumble on the waves. Air 22.4°C, water 22.3°C, rainfall 3.35 mm/day. The dawn patrol is your friend-before the sea breeze, the points can still offer playful 3-5ft (1-1.5m) walls.
