February: Late-Summer Groundswell Grind
February is nearly identical to January in size, with the average swell at around 6ft (1.8m) and the period at 11.9s. Again, SSW (33.1 percent) and SW (33.9 percent) dominate the swell direction; WSW adds another 5 percent, and N/NW directions are absent. This is still rideable groundswell, but the shorter periods mean the lines lack that extra push that makes Supertubes go from good to exceptional.
The wind picture remains summer-like: SSE (21 percent) and S (18.3 percent) lead the way, with SE (16 percent) and ESE (10.2 percent) adding a lot of afternoon chop. The offshore wind total looks decent on paper, but only 18 percent qualifies as ideal. Add an average air temperature of 21.0°C (14.9-32.3°C), water at 21.0°C and almost no rain, and you get a month where early dawn patrol with a light S/SW wind is the move.
