Conditions at Warroora Station in August
August: Big Swell, Shifting Winds
August stays locked into winter. The averages are exactly as powerful as July - 1.7m (5.6ft) and 14.1s - with SW swell now reaching a monstrous 61% share and SSW at 24%. This is the peak of the Southern Ocean conveyor belt, and the 1.5-2m (5-6.5ft) category is the most populated on the wave rose, with around 18% of waves in the 2-2.5m (6.5-8ft) range. The NW-facing coast is going to see plenty of thick, heavy lines.
The only trade-off is wind. Ideal offshore flow drops to 24%, and the wind rose features more SSE (22%) and S (19%) strength. That means bigger, more powerful surf but a few more lumpy, wind-affected days. Water temps fall to their annual low of 22.3°C, air temps sit around 19.9°C, and precipitation is dry at 0.33mm/day. For the experienced surfer, August is still a high-quality month; you just need to choose your sessions carefully.
