Conditions at Sao Conrado in November
November: Retreating Storm Track, Rising Summer Pattern
November begins the slow transition to summer, with a bit more restlessness in the atmosphere. Average swell heights hold around 4ft (1.3m) but the average period drops to 9.8s, and ideal winds slip to 38%. SSE (25%), S (24%), SE (23%) and ESE (17%) all still send waves to Sao Conrado, and the S/SSE swells have enough juice for solid 3-5ft (1-1.5m) and some 5-8ft (1.5-2.5m) sets. The issue is again wind: E and ENE total nearly 35%, with ESE increasing, so many afternoons turn cross-shore and bumpy. The South Atlantic storm track is starting to retreat, but lingering cold fronts can still produce fun S/SSW groundswell. Air temperatures climb to 23.3°C, rain returns strongly at 6.72mm/day, and water temp stays cool for late spring at 20.7°C. Look for the morning offshore windows and you can still find punchy autumn-like surf.
