Conditions at Rosa in February
February: Summer Heat, Fair Swell, Fickle Winds
February looks a lot like January, with an average swell height of 4ft (1.2m) and an average period of 8.1s. The directions shift a bit more toward the E-ESE-SE window: E (24%), ESE (25%), ENE (20%) and SE (18%) combine to keep the beach reasonably well fed. The 1-1.5m (3-5ft) class is the dominant height band, and there is a slightly better share of 1.5-2m (5-6ft) waves than in January, especially from the SE and SSE.
Ideal wind nudges up to 28%, but NNE (21%) and NE (17%) trades still rule the wind rose, with a good amount of ENE (9%) adding occasional onshore texture. Water temperature climbs to 25.3°C, air sits near 23.8°C and precipitation is still high at 6.30 mm/day. It is a fun, summery month of short-period waves and warm-water groveling, but don't expect many long-period or hollow days.
